Grants Advisory Board for Youth

Curated by Trao Thao

Despite having to move all meetings to virtual, the Grants Advisory Board for Youth (GABY) continues to stay active in the community and navigating through all challenges that come with the pandemic. This year, GABY was able to fund the following youth-led projects:

4-H on the Wild Side
Social Justice Art: Engineering Change
At Home Student Film Photography
Equity in the Community, Operation Helping Those Having Challenge
Arts Matter

We’re excited and cannot wait to see all the positive impacts these projects will create.
