Youth & Government relies on fundraising to ensure it can continue to provide outstanding statewide educational and social experiences for middle and high school youth.

Support Our Annual Campaign
The California YMCA Youth & Government program conducts an Annual Support Campaign to raise funds to help support its programs. Contributions to the California YMCA Youth & Government’s Annual Campaign support start-up delegations in under-served regions of the state, provide scholarships for delegates in need, and offer the youth of California a life-changing opportunity. They also allow us to keep the participation fees at a reasonable level. Contact us at jennifer@calymca.org to register as a member of the Annual Campaign.

Governor Deukmejian Endowment Fund
Gifts to California YMCA Youth & Government’s “Governor Deukmejian Endowment Fund” provide a stable, enduring source of funding that protects California YMCA Youth & Government’s ability to positively affect our state’s youth for generations to come. Gifts to the fund’s principal are restricted and only the earnings can be spent.
Each year, the California YMCA Youth & Government Scholarship Committee directs a percentage of the earnings into the scholarship fund for distribution.
Contact Jennifer Prouhet, Senior Director of Marketing & Business Development, at jennifer@calymca.org or (916) 287-9622 ext. 111 to contribute.

The Heritage Club
The Heritage Club is a group of highly engaged individuals who have made a legacy commitment in support of California YMCA Youth & Government.
There are several ways to join. Most people make a gift through their will. You may also make an outright gift to the Endowment Fund or you may choose to consider a planned or deferred gift. Giving can be accomplished through several vehicles that provide substantial tax savings and other important benefits.
To find out more information or to sign-up for the California YMCA Youth & Government Heritage Club, please contact Jennifer Prouhet, Director of Marketing & Business Development at jennifer@calymca.org or (916) 287-9622 x 103.
