An investment in exalt is an investment in today’s youth.  An investment in today’s youth is an investment in our collective future.

multiple ways to contribute

donate

Individual donations comprise a critical and increasing portion of our budget. Your support can enable a young person - or several young people - whose lack of connection to enrichment opportunities often leads them to the justice system, to step onto a path that enables them to develop and utilize their skills, talents and interests in creative and productive endeavors.

volunteer

Help a young person develop skills: exalt aims to match each program participant with a volunteer/mentor who will work with him/her 1-3 hours per week to develop academic or technology skills.

Help exalt with multimedia and graphic projects: exalt is constantly developing new communications materials as well as multimedia projects for our participants. Put your skills to use for young people who have incredible creative talent but need resources to help tap, develop and channel it.

Developing internships in youths' fields of interest is a core component of what we do. Exposing young people to careers that they are interested in motivates them to pursue education and career goals. The best way to develop substantive internship experiences is by finding individuals who will be supervisors committed to our mission. The best way to find these folks is through personal networking.
