Grant Winners Announced!

We had over 75 nonprofit organizations apply for a financial grant this year! Denver is so lucky to have these amazing organizations who help thousands of children and youth every year. This year, the YouthBoard spent over 160 hours vetting the organizations (that's as much as having one full-time employee work for over a month!) 

Without further adieu, the YouthBoard is proud to announce the winners of this year's grants (totalling $10,000)!
