The Teens for Tahoe Giving Circle is a unique program within the Tahoe Fund’s Teens for Tahoe initiative, aimed at empowering young people to become active stewards of the Lake Tahoe region.
Based on the highly successful program offered by the Community Foundation of Northern Nevada, this 10-week course is focused on high school students in grades 9-12 who have a passion for Tahoe. Through the program, participants gain valuable experience in philanthropy, learn about nonprofit organizations, effective giving strategies, and financial analysis.
“We’re thrilled to offer this program for our next generation of supporters,” said Amy Berry, CEO of the Tahoe Fund. “This is a great way to learn about philanthropy, earn community service hours, and help give $10,000 away to a great Tahoe project.”
This virtual program provides teens with the knowledge and tools to make meaningful charitable decisions. At the end of the course, participants have $10,000 to distribute to a project of their choice from the Tahoe Fund’s portfolio of environmental improvement projects.
The Teens for Tahoe Giving Circle will is virtual, allowing students from across the region to participate.
