Youth Foundation is a structure for funding local youth-led and focused projects that help young people make a real difference in their communities.

Youth Foundation Upper Yarra has supported the local Skate Park Group in Warburton to hold an event to raise awareness of the Skate Park campaign and to build support for it by putting on a fun day of skateboarding, bike tricks and music.

Youth Foundation also worked on a two photovoice projects including “Life through OUR eyes” with 30 VCAL students from Upper Yarra Community College, to express how they saw their community and themselves, through their photographs.
