Young Adult Grant Advisory Committee

The Young Adult Grant Advisory Committee is now accepting applications for the 2021-2022 cohort!

The Y Social Impact Center’s Employment and Training team is proud to be partnering again with the Raikes Foundation to offer an amazing opportunity for young adults to join a grant committee. The committee is composed entirely of individuals who have experienced housing instability. Participants will learn about grant proposals, evaluation, non-profit work, professionalism, and more, as well as working together as a team to decide how to disburse a sizable amount of funding to local non-profits working to address homelessness issues.

• Young adults between the ages of 18-26 who in the past or present have experienced housing instability, and currently live in King County, are eligible to apply.
• Participants are paid $20/hr. We meet around twice a month on Wednesdays from 5:30-7:30, with some paid work-time outside of meetings as well.
• This is an amazing opportunity to learn valuable skills and boost your resume
• There are a limited number of seats! Apply today!

The committee is currently meeting virtually due to covid, though we may switch to in-person meetings when it becomes safe to do so.

This position can be a great fit for young adults with whom many of us work, especially those with a passion to help others, and good communication & teamwork skills.

We are also hoping to conduct interviews as soon as possible, so please encourage anyone interested to apply ASAP!
