My Nonprofit Reviews

ZYEP was created to provide activities for our Zuni youth. As a Native American tribe, Zuni is located in a remote area and is a close knit community that still practices their culture, traditional customs and have maintained their native language. With limited amenities in our community, we believe our youth should be afforded the same opportunities as youth anywhere in the US. To that end, our team at ZYEP have put in place many sports activities, a summer camp, mentorship, and arts to build self esteem for our youth. Too often though, we have to deny some youth as it takes funds to implement these activities and we do not have the ideal funding. Our ZYEP team enacts innovative ways to engage youth and collaborates with outside entities to ensure that we provide an avenue where our youth can become healthier and stronger physically, spiritually and psychologically.
