What value does YVC projects provide youth?

YVC’s Summer Projects are an opportunity for youth to grow personally, emotionally, and professionally over the summer months. Our Team Leaders, who will be facilitating a relevant service-learning curriculum at each project, are trained to work with youth to make their volunteer experience as meaningful and educational as possible. 

What do youth learn during Summer Projects?

Team leaders implement activities and lessons that emphasize career connections and skill development in the areas of communication, collaboration and leadership. A successful YVC Summer Project experience will allow the youth volunteer to cultivate a deeper understanding of how their service impacts their community. 
Summer 2020 FAQs

Q: Is there a cost to participate?

YVCKC's summer programming is offered at a subsidized rate of $59/week with full scholarships available to anyone demonstrating need. Meals, snacks, and transportation are not provided.

Q: How many projects will run during the week?

A: Our summer will run Monday-Thursday from 9am-3pm with five different projects for youth volunteer to choose from. 

Q: Will there be bus transportation?

A: Transportation to and from projects will not be provided with the exception of Missouri State Park that will run for two weeks. For other projects, drop off will take place at the service project location at 9am and the pick up time will be 3pm. 

Q: Can I cancel a week of projects?

A: You may cancel a week of projects. Please give us enough notice so that we can open the spot to another youth. Cancellation fees for summer 2020 WILL be refundable, you may also contact YVCKC staff at kansascity@yvc.org to transfer your youth volunteer to a different project week. 

Q: How many weeks can youth serve?

A: Youth can choose to serve anywhere between one and eight weeks. We encourage youth to attend the entire week of service signed up for. 

Q: How does the project selection work?

A: Our projects will fill up on a first come, first serve basis. Once a project fills up there will be an option for a waiting list. Those on the waiting list are not guaranteed a spot on the project. 

Q: Do you provide food?

A: We do not provide food. We encourage each youth to bring a lunch and any snacks they would like to have throughout the week. Depending on the project, youth may receive food as part of a celebration that occurs on the last day of the project. If this is the case your youth will be told during their week of the project. There will be ample time to rest and have water breaks. 

Q: Will there be scholarships available?

A: Yes. Youth participants may be eligible to receive a scholarship for their registration.

Q: Can I register my youth for half-day or part-time projects?

A: We do not offer a half-day or part-time schedule. If you are going to be late or need to leave early from a project, you will need to let your Team Leader know.
