SUMMARY:Celestial: A Giving Tuesday Campaign Honoring Amiya and Uplifting Sagacity Leaders

We will honor her legacy through: \n\nReadings of her poetry and prose\nYouth-led tributes and reflections\nAn altar and gallery space featuring her art and words\nCopies of Her Voice Discovered available to view and share\n\nThis is not a conclusion — it is a continuation of the light Amiya gave us. All are welcome to join in this space of remembrance\, resilience\, and rising. \nOpen to youth\, families\, community members\, and those committed to healing-centered spaces. \nBring your presence. Bring your prayers. Bring your promise to carry the light forward.

SUMMARY:THE SYI HOLIDAY TOY DRIVE 2020!
DESCRIPTION:PARTNERS / AFFILIATES: \nThe Los Angeles County Report on the Status of women conclude more women are living in poverty than any other demographic with young women predominantly of color under the age of 18 representing the highest numbers in groups of people likely to be subjected to the harshest realities within poverty stricken conditions.The negative effects for young women experiencing poverty conditions are immeasurable\, and serve as a deterrent for women to fully experience a state of peace with the fear\, anxiety\, and worry that follows when access to safety and security appears unattainable. Young women of color are more likely to fall victim to forms of violence\, and Black women have the highest rates in domestic violence and are more likely to stay in poverty. Though there is considerable upward mobility in the United States\, escaping poverty and violence is difficult\, and racial disadvantages mean that mobility out of poverty for Black women is far more difficult. \n The exempt purpose of Simply Youth Institute is to serve young women through educational activities with purpose to:  \n1. to equip every young woman with free access to personal financial literacy. \n2. to promote peace in every young woman through emotional\, intellectual\, physical\, social\, and spiritual wellness education. \n3.  to create equitable opportunities for every young woman to mentor with women in successful leadership positions across the state. \nSimply Youth Institute’s exempt purpose serves as re-entry support for young women who are in the juvenile systems. Additionally\, providing above mentioned resources to local educational agencies whose served demographics are in the poverty threshold. We provide direct educational services to young women in vulnerable spaces to promote wellness and peace. \nEvery young woman deserves to have a financially healthy life and live in a state of peace.

SUMMARY:SAGACITY SUMMER LEADERSHIP PROGRAM 2023
DESCRIPTION:Our Why\nLos Angeles County is home to the nation’s second largest public school system that can neither meet young women’s needs for a trusted mentor nor provide critical support services. SYI provides supportive relationships for young people by connecting them to opportunities that lead to successful outcomes. The exempt purpose of Simply Youth Institute is to connect young people to careers\, confidence\, and finanical freedom through education\, and mentorship. We promise to replenish the barren outlook for young people through: \n1. Higher-educational attainment \n2. Thriving healthy relationships between colleagues and peer groups. \n3.  Long-term social and emotional well-being. \n4. Pathways to competitive and high paying careers. \n5. Sustained financial capability. \nSimply Youth Institute’s exempt purpose and work is urgent and demands consistently challenging ourselves to deliver high-impact services. We commit ourselves to create innovative approaches and rigourously evaluate our work in the community. Every young person deserves to have a financially healthy life and live in a state of peace. \n \n  \n \nSimply Youth Institute is a 501(c)(3) organization.
