Aimee Vue is building youth power in philanthropy
The first installment of our
Donor Stories project <[link removed]>of 2023 shines a spotlight on
Aimee Vue<[link removed]> – a philanthropic trailblazer and youth advocate!
In her story,<[link removed]> Aimee shares how her experience with grantmaking as a teenager opened her eyes to the possibilities – and problems – of philanthropy. She explains how her time in Headwaters’ Giving Project built on that foundation and gave her more tools to make philanthropic change with the young people she works with today.
“In my role, I work with a lot of young people – especially BIPOC young people - who say things like, “I can't be a philanthropist. I don't know how to do that. I don't have the money to do that.” And I get to help them begin to see things differently. By having those conversations with young people, I’ve seen how important it is to be able to redefine what philanthropy is with the lens that anyone can participate in philanthropy.”
We invite you to get to know Aimee and learn about how she works towards her vision of change –
