  • Youth Participatory Grantmaking Project YGMPStudents are often the target for funding decisions but rarely have a democratic say in how funding allocations or decisions are made. YGMP seeks to flip these power dynamics by creating a framework for students, and especially students of color in SE Seattle, to make funding decisions and support their leadership in this arena.By creating a pool of resources and mentoring youth of color in making decisions around how to bring those resources to their own schools and communities, this project provides them a voice in shaping their own educational and life experiences This is also a trust building exercise between young people and systems, where we learn together and alongside each other how to re-shape and create new ways of being in community together. Participants meet regularly and receive supportive training and mentoring in the areas of local education policy, social justice-focused philanthropy, and advocacy skills development. At the end of each cohort, youth participants collaboratively allocate grant funding
