Impact Year
Make a Difference In Your Community
Impact Year gives teens an opportunity to take part in service-learning events and advocacy projects that positively impact a range of populations in need in our communities.
All teens are invited to join our volunteer events, check out what’s coming up next!
Join your local YouthFirst community in Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo, or Palo Alto as an Impact Year Leader.

לֹא עָלֶיךָ הַמְּלָאכָה לִגְמֹר, וְלֹא אַתָּה בֶן חוֹרִין לִבָּטֵל מִמֶּנָּה
It is not up to you to finish the task, but neither are you at liberty to ignore it
