Each year, NextUp receives hundreds of applications from local youth development organizations for funding and grants for their afterschool and summer programs. You can help review and select programs that will be available to Richmond youth next year. This is a six hour (1 hour per week) commitment.
NextUp hosts multiple annual community events for youth and families. We'd love your help setting up, at event stations, and cleaning up. Corporate sponsorship opportunities are also available in addition to volunteering.

NextUp RVA is a nonprofit organization helping youth discover their talents and build positive relationships. It does this by managing a strong system of accessible out-of-school time programs delivered in schools and across the city. When youth participate in quality out-of-school time programs, they learn new skills, find out what they are good at, gain confidence and are engaged learners.
