An article about Youth and Philanthropy
KYW NewsRadio 1060 - Education Report: "Kids Giving
by KYW's Dr. Marciene Mattleman
It�s holiday time, and kids eagerly await their presents. Many of them would be surprised to hear the old adage that it�s better to give than to receive.
To help them learn about the rewards of giving, youth philanthropy programs are growing throughout the country.
The Northland Foundation has been working for years to improve the lives of young people. And joining with Minnesota Power, it started 'Kids Plus.' Its board includes 14 young people, grades 8-12, who give grants to schools and organizations serving youths.
Youthonboard.org encourages non-profits to bring young people on their boards. "
