Hi John,

I want to share something with you: This year, young people in Washington proved that when we organize, we win.

Because of supporters like you, Washington Youth Alliance helped secure $18 million this year for school-based mental health centers — building on the largest investment in youth mental health in state history. We brought 100+ young people to Olympia for Youth Lobby Day, including 50+ from rural communities who had never spoken to a legislator before. And our youth leaders helped pass landmark gun safety legislation that will save lives.

These aren't just numbers. They're proof that young people are leading right now — not waiting for permission.

Before midnight on December 31, we're asking our community to help us raise $5,000 to carry this momentum into 2026.

Your tax-deductible gift today will help us:

• Expand from 10 chapters to 15, reaching more rural communities

• Host our largest Youth Lobby Day yet with 300+ young advocates

• Train the next generation of nonprofit leaders, community organizers, and candidates

• Defend the youth mental health funding we fought so hard to win

At Washington Youth Alliance, youth don't just have a seat at the table — we build the table. Your gift makes that possible.

With gratitude,

Chetan Soni
Executive Director, Washington Youth Alliance

P.S. Every dollar you give before December 31 is tax-deductible for 2025. Will you help us reach our $5,000 goal?
