Please send your application to: info@youth-roots.org with the subject line "YouthRoots Program and Office Assistant Job Posting"

Have a great day! They are due by 5pm tonight - more info on how to apply here. 

My name is Abbie Zislis, I’m a sophomore at Cherry Creek High School, and I want to change the world.

The idea of “changing the world” can be daunting. Where does one even begin? Overwhelming and seemingly unapproachable—this is the mindset that many apply to stimulating change. In fact, it wasn’t until I joined YouthRoots that I realized that changing the world isn’t quite as scary as I’d initially presumed.

Due to our Youth Roots Retreat over Nov 12-13, at Estes Park, I feel even more empowered as a youth. We went through lessons that helped me rethink how I can manage things, when moving forward in the philanthropy world. The Needs Assessment hit me the most.
