Invest in Iowa Youth
Become a Neighbor
At CYC, we are committed to providing resources and programming that are responsive to the needs of the community. To achieve this, we rely on generous donations from community members who care about giving back to Iowa youth.
​
Becoming a neighbor to CYC means uplifting our community by investing in the futures of Iowa youth.
That looks like:
-
Supplying materials to our school-based clubs so they can complete the service projects that they chose.
-
Throwing career fairs for our group mentoring students so that they can learn about different paths.
-
Granting college scholarships to our seniors to set them up for success as they start their next chapters.
-
Covering maintenance for our Stowe Heights Challenge Course to keep it accessible and safe for Iowa youth.
​
You can become a CYC Neighbor by donating $250 or more in 1 calendar year, either through one gift or by joining our monthly giving club donating at least $21/month.
​
Thank you to all of our current neighbors!
