Give Pikes Peak Youth Board

A philanthropy leadership program for high school students across El Paso and Teller counties.

What is the Give youth board?

Give Pikes Peak is launching its inaugural Youth Board! We’re looking for high school students who are curious about their community and ready to make an impact.

Youth Board members will spend the school year learning how philanthropy works in the Pikes Peak region, hearing from local nonprofit and business leaders, and leading a youth-driven project connected to the Give! Campaign, our annual giving platform that connects donors with 70+ local nonprofits every November through January.

No prior experience is needed. We’re not looking for the perfect resume. We’re looking for students who care about where they live and want to be part of something bigger.

Who should apply

  • Rising 10th through 12th graders in El Paso or Teller County
  • Able to commit to monthly meetings, August through May
  • Ready to make a difference in your community
  • No prior experience required
  • All backgrounds and interests welcome
