Mission and programs · 2024

• Advancing Ownership & Wealth through Economic Opportunity: Youthprise creates opportunities for economic prosperity by supporting programs and initiatives that build workforce skills, promote youth entrepreneurship, and expose youth to career pathways. Youthprise works with stakeholders across sectors to equip young people with the economic tools to thrive. In 2024, Youthprise awarded grants to community partners through our Opportunity Reboot program and other initiatives that work to connect young people with career pathways in high-demand industries; provide wraparound support such as mentoring and referrals for basic needs; and opportunities to earn industry-recognized credentials in areas and disciplines such as OSHA 10, NCCER Core Crafts in construction, Certified Nursing Assistant, and Personal Care Assistant. In 2024, Youthprise invested nearly $2.7 million in Economic Opportunity grants and strategic investments.

  Expenses $3,559,317 · Grants $2,394,780

• Promoting Healing through Health and Safety: Youthprise supports programs and initiatives that promote the health and safety of young people. We champion work that promotes the healing of our youth and their right to health and safety. In addition to meeting basic food needs through our Nutrition Program, we work with community-based organizations to link healthy lifestyles with good nutrition. We take a holistic approach to health and safety and advance intervention strategies that prevent the criminalization of youth, which can pose a threat to public safety. In 2024, Youthprise supported over 40 Nutrition sites across the Twin Cities metro region, distributing 210,262 meals and snacks to school-age children and youth. Additionally, we supported 25 Twin Cities-based organizations through a cohort-based grantmaking and technical assistance initiative focused on non-clinical mental health support for youth. In 2024, Youthprise invested approximately $1.6 million in grants and strategic investments.

  Expenses $2,145,988 · Grants $1,610,597 · Revenue $185,065

• Building Power through Learning and Leadership: We invest in learning opportunities that build knowledge, power, and agency among our youth; we support and amplify youth as leaders by building networks, developmental opportunities, and shifting policy/laws. Youthprise promotes the learning, leadership, and social-emotional development of youth. Programs and initiatives supported in this area expose youth to arts and culture, enrichment activities, technical assistance, and youth leadership opportunities. We seek to shift how programs interact with youth and support programs that engage youth in leadership and governance, a practice we model at Youthprise. We embed young people across all areas of our organization, and we have a goal of 50% representation of youth on our Board of Directors. In 2024, Youthprise supported organizations and activities that center young people in decisions impacting them through training and technical assistance, as well as financial investment. Among our activities in this area was an investment in a cross-state initiative to co-design afterschool systems in six locations across the country. In 2024, Youthprise invested $1.2 million in Learning and Leadership grants and strategic investments.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Listed in Part VII

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

Schedule J

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
