With love and respect, YouthBuild partners with opportunity youth to build the skillsets and mindsets that lead to lifelong learning, livelihood, and leadership. Within the opportunity youth population, the YouthBuild movement primarily serves young people who lack a high school diploma and financial resources. These young people are in greatest need of our support, and they are our greatest source of untapped potential. Across hundreds of YouthBuild programs in the United States and around the globe, these young people work together to reclaim their education, gain job skills, and become leaders in their communities. YouthBuild partners with opportunity youth, and stands ready to meet them with knowledge, tools, opportunities, and love.

The prevailing belief in entrepreneurship is that the value of an entrepreneur is the value of their business, not the entrepreneur themselves. This creates a system where an enormous amount of early-stage entrepreneurs who don’t come from privilege are ignored. Instead, Sky’s the Limit envisions a world where every entrepreneur has the opportunity to achieve their full potential. Our mission is to build a global community where all entrepreneurs and their allies can build meaningful relationships and grow together. Skysthelimit.org (STL) is a digital platform that connects aspiring, underrepresented entrepreneurs with mentors, access to capital, and our proven process for building a business. Our work is to empower underserved communities nationwide by providing them with the right support, from the right people, at the right time in their journey. With over 100,000 registered entrepreneurs and volunteers, we're growing rapidly in all 50 states and the UK. Through our digital platform, we provide young entrepreneurs with one-on-one support, our young adult-adapted entrepreneurship training resources, and our startup grants funding. We partner with philanthropists and companies big and small to create impact together, engaging their employees in supporting our entrepreneurs. Our long term partners include Accenture, PNC Bank, Bank of America, and Simply Business. Many thousands of their employees volunteer in groups and 1:1 to help entrepreneurs tackle business problems, from marketing and sales to product design and legal. Over 11 million young adults in the United States say they want to start their own business, but lack the resources they need to do so. We’re building the on-ramp to entrepreneurship so that anyone with an idea, perseverance and a willingness to learn can get the support they need to build their business. Skysthelimit.org (formerly known as Youth Business USA) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit operating across the United States and United Kingdom.

Youth Connections was founded in October of 1976 in Franklin, IN as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization established to serve Johnson County's youth in crisis through a youth shelter for homeless and struggling youth. Since then, Youth Connections programs and services have moved away from operating a house for youth and have evolved to respond to other emerging community gaps and needs. Today, our programs are focused more intently on the prevention of juvenile delinquency through ongoing programming built on evidence based practices. We serve our community's at-risk youth by "reducing the risk factors" associated with juvenile delinquency such as divorce & family breakdown and a lack of resources for youth before and after school hours. All of our efforts are focused on "increasing" the resiliency of at-risk youth so they may not fall victim to delinquent behavior. We offer the following programs and services to address this need: - Safe Place Program (24 hr youth help line, school education, & Safe Place locations) - Families In Transition {F.I.T.} (classes addressing family disruption due to divorce) - The Children’s Visitation Center (supervised visitations between at-risk youth & families) - Custody Evaluations (child custody disputes) - Host Homes (serving runaway & homeless youth) - Jumpstart Group Mentoring (after-school group mentoring for at-risk youth)
