Our Impact
Our Impact
Since our inception in December 2006, WYCF has raised over $2,182,915 and distributed more than $2,121,350 to carefully vetted organizations.
Gifting has grown exponentially as well: in 2007, we gave $18,900 to 13 charities vs. $200,000 in 2025 to 32 charities. Our growth is reflective of the trust placed in us by our donors and the effectiveness of our mission to help children and young adults to dream, live, love, and laugh in ways previously unimaginable.

Empowering Development
At the Whitney Young Children’s Foundation, we enhance the lives of vulnerable children and young adults by financially supporting educational and social programs tailored for underprivileged, minority, and disabled demographics. Our donations to selected organizations empower these individuals to overcome challenges and advocate for their rights, ensuring a foundation for lifelong resilience and success.
Community and Well-being
The Whitney Young Children’s Foundation focuses on mental health and community engagement and supports wellness programs for children and young adults who may come from low-income families. These individuals benefit greatly from a supportive network that enhances community belonging and well-being.

Societal Impact
At the Whitney Young Children’s Foundation, we hope that our financial support will have far-reaching effects that extend well beyond the individual who received the immediate aide. Our desire is that our support gives hope to entire families and communities, raising awareness, aspirations and expanding possibilities for the greater family and community.
Educational Opportunities
At the Whitney Young Children’s Foundation, we emphasize the transformative role of educational opportunities in shaping the futures of children and young adults, especially those form underserved communities. The educational programs we support financially are designed to significantly enhance learning outcomes and to deeply impact their developmental paths.
