The Youth Foundation is located in Eagle County, Colorado and was founded in 1997. Unlike any other youth service organization in Eagle County, we provide and support programs that serve economically disadvantaged youth from pre-school through college. The common theme in all of the Youth Foundation's efforts is jumping in to not only keep kids from "falling through the cracks," but lift them up through education, sports and opportunities that promote character development. We provide socially imperative "life skills" programs including Kindergarten Readiness, The Magic Bus, Book Buddies, After-School Enrichment, The First Tee program, Academic Soccer, Community Coach Mentors, the Guardian Scholars program and more, to enrich the lives of youth in Eagle County.
