Since our inception, RYY has made an impact on the Rochester community by mobilizing over 13,000 volunteers, leveraging over 8 million dollars in cash and in-kind donations, and providing capacity-building resources for over 70 non-profits in the Rochester area.  We hope to continue this for many years to come, and you can help support us by donating your time and/or money to RYY.

Please reach out to rochester@youthyear.org if you are interested in providing a professional development training to our members or an in-kind donation to support the program. Please click the button below if you are interested in making a monetary donation. 

Your donation will make a difference by:

  • Reducing a host organization’s cost-share requirement to provide smaller non-profits with foundational capacity-building support
  • Sponsoring conference fees to provide VISTA members with more opportunities to continue learning about anti-poverty strategies, asset-based community development, and structural change
  • Funding supplemental benefits for members
  • Providing high-quality professional development trainings
