The M&M Area Community Foundation (MMACF) is seeking enthusiastic, dedicated, and committed youth ages 12 – 21 to join our Youth Advisory Committee (YAC). Program opportunities include leadership development with a strong focus on making a difference and giving back to our communities, and of course having fun!!
Joining YAC is a terrific way to network with students from schools across Marinette and Menominee Counties. Students who attend seven meetings/school year, whether in-person or virtually, will receive a scholarship of $100/year. Students who serve as YAC President, VP or Secretary or, who are elected to the Foundation’s Board of Directors, are eligible for additional scholarship funding.
YAC members advise the Foundation’s Board of Directors on concerns and interests of youth and teens. In addition, they plan special events, earn community service hours, evaluate applications and award grants to local nonprofits.
YAC meets monthly, at a day, time and location determined by its members. Most meetings will have both an in-person and virtual option. Our YAC orientation meeting is scheduled for Sunday, September 17that 4pm. We will gather in-person at LE Jones Company, 3711 10th Street, Menominee. There will also be an option to attend virtually. The Community Foundation will provide dinner.
All those interested in joining YAC should visit the Foundation’s “Youth” page at www.mmacf.org for more details.
