How to Help

Donate Youth Power Center relies on the generosity of others to operate.. No matter how you choose to help the organization, each donation is equally important in helping our students succeed. Individual and corporate donations provide vital support to the foundation's academic programs for disadvantaged youth. Your gift ensures that more children will develop the strong framework of skills, training and resources necessary to propel them into a competitive position in society. Through corporate and community donations, Youth Power Center continues to enhance and expand its programs to better serve its youth. Your support truly makes a difference in preparing our next generation to become confident and productive citizens, thus raising the standards for future generations. *Please note that Youth Power Center's legal name is still The Good Samaritan Foundation. Please write out donations to The Good Samaritan Foundation. Thank you for your patience as we transition to our new name and brand.
