The Member Team is open to rising 9-12^th grade students who are residents of Bronxville, Eastchester or Tuckahoe.  You do not need to attend school in the BET community to be a part of the YCF.  Joining the Member team is a great opportunity to give back to your community and discover what the YCF is all about. 

The YCF Leadership team will meet monthly.  Each member will be assigned to a committee – Fundraising, Community Service, PR/Social Media or Evaluations.  Committee members are in charge of planning events, running a PR campaign for YCF, and conducting evaluations of agencies that apply for grants, amongst other things.  We anticipate the time commitment to be 2-3 hours a month, varying if there is an event going on.

The Member Team will participate in a community service project and a fundraising project. By participating on the Member Team you will also learn about local organizations that serve youth in the community and vote on which grants will be awarded in April/May.

The YCF awards grants every year to local agencies that support programs for the community’s youth. The donations collected from the YCF members go to fund the grants. This money combined with the money raised allow the YCF to award multiple grants and have a bigger impact on the community.

You will learn about local agencies, philanthropy, leadership and how it all works together.  Plus, all YCF members will get the satisfaction felt in helping their community, we like to think of it as the warm, fuzzy feeling of doing good.
