Since its inception in 2002, GABY has granted $199,000 to 103 youth-led projects throughout the Sacramento region. In 2007 alone, GABY members were responsible for granting out approximately $70,000 in grants to 29 youth-led projects in the Sacramento area.
The Sacramento Region Community Foundation’s (SRCF) Grants Advisory Board for Youth (GABY) supports youth by developing their knowledge of philanthropy, harnessing skills for community service, and providing resources for implementing youth-led projects. All this is accomplished through learning modules that take student's through the competitive grant making process. Teens leverage youth and community assets to make a difference.
