How we’re funded
As a nonprofit organization, L.A. Youth raises money from several sources, including foundation grants, advertising and individual donations. While the majority of our funding has traditionally come from grants, individual donations have become increasingly critical in an era when foundation giving has been reduced.

“The best thing about my time at L.A. Youth was improving my writing skills with help from an editor, and having the opportunity to share my experiences in foster care with other people.” —Jeff Solano, Class of 2005

“Contributing to L.A. Youth was my stepping stone toward community service. I decided to become a teacher because I wanted to provide students of color with the support that adults in my life had given to me. The paper helped to mold me into a confident writer, and inspired me to give back in my adulthood.” —Lena Hicks, Class of 1995
