The Yates County Youth Bureau is now accepting applications from local non-profits for youth development funding in 2025, including those focused on organized sports. The application window closes on September 13, with funds available for programs running from October 1, 2024, to September 30, 2025.
Eligible programs must target youth under 21 and promote positive development through various activities, including civic engagement, physical fitness, and educational support. Sports programs should serve children aged 6-17 and demonstrate strong governance and child protection policies.
Funding decisions will be based on New York State guidelines and aim to benefit a broad cross-section of Yates County’s youth. For more information or to apply, visit the Yates County Youth Bureau’s website or contact Christine Yonge at 315-531-3451.
