The Young Dreams Foundation is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization geared towards helping kids graduate high school and become young entrepreneurs.  The foundation was started due to the increasing drop out rates of high school students in the Los Angeles area. The program tutors and mentors high school students and encourage them to take responsibility for their own futures.

"When I make a donation to The Young Dreams Foundation, where does the money go?"

"What this is not is one of those 'non-profit organizations' where the only people who reap the benefits of the organization are the people who run it. "Every cent that is donated to the foundation goes directly to helping the kids who contact us requesting assistance as they strive toward building their futures." 

"What are the different areas that the foundation offers help
to young people?"

9th-12th grade students can receive help from the organization in a number of different areas and ways. Kids who are in need of items or opportunity or money can contact the foundation and make a request.  There is also the The Young Dream Scholarship Fund that provides money to high school seniors going on to college, ten different scholarships are offered each year.
