Help Us Empower Youth with Disabilities in 2024

As 2023 comes to a close, we at the Kansas Youth Empowerment Academy (KYEA) would like to take a moment to reflect on the incredible journey we've had this year and express our deepest gratitude for your unwavering support. Your belief in our mission has been instrumental in empowering young people with disabilities to reach their full potential.

As we approach the end of this year, we have an exciting opportunity to impact the lives of youth with disabilities profoundly. We aim to raise $3,000 by December 31st to offset the costs of sending one deserving young individual to the Youth Leadership Forum (YLF) in the summer of 2024.

YLF is a life-changing experience that equips youth with disabilities with valuable leadership skills, self-confidence, and a supportive network of peers. It opens doors to opportunities they might never have imagined possible and builds friendships they will have for years to come.

We can make this dream a reality with your continued support. Here's how you can contribute:

Visit our Website: You can make a secure online donation through our website at KYEA.org [ [link removed] ]. Just click on the PayPal button to make your contribution.

Every dollar counts, and your generosity will directly impact the lives of so many young people, helping them gain the skills and confidence they need to thrive.

Your support makes a difference in these young individuals' lives and contributes to building a more inclusive and empowering society for all. We truly appreciate your dedication to our cause.

Thank you for being a vital part of KYEA's mission to empower youth with disabilities and helping us make 2024 an unforgettable year for those we serve.

I wish you a joyous holiday season and a prosperous New Year!

Sincerely,

Shannon Kennedy
Executive Director
