About the Event:

Voices of Tomorrow is a TED-style showcase featuring high schoolers from our Youth Nonprofit Fellowship (YNF) program. Each speaker will deliver a 5–7 minute talk on social impact, youth advocacy, or nonprofit challenges, using research and personal experiences to inspire and educate. For attendees, this is more than just a listening event. You will be able to hear powerful talks, gain insight into the challenges and opportunities facing youth-led nonprofits, and walk away with fresh perspectives that can inform your own work, volunteering, or community engagement. It is also a chance to connect across generations and be part of a movement that invests in the next wave of changemakers.

About the Cause:

This event supports YAS's beliefs to train youth in leadership, public speaking, and advocacy. Funds raised will directly support the Professional Development Fund, which provides partial or full funding to help young leaders access conferences, certifications, books, trainings, and other opportunities that build skills in nonprofit leadership, service, and social impact. The fund ensures that financial barriers do not prevent participants from pursuing meaningful professional development experiences that strengthen their leadership and ability to create positive change in their communities. As a leading youth initiative recognized by the global GivingTuesday movement, YAS is proud to represent the youth voice in showing how young people are not just the leaders of tomorrow but of today.
