Michigan Community Foundations’ Youth Project (MCFYP) 20th Anniversary Report

Publication Date: February 28, 2013

The 1991 launch of the Michigan Community Foundations’ Youth Project (MCFYP) marked a groundbreaking effort to spread youth philanthropy throughout Michigan’s community foundations and all 83 counties. In honor of the 20th anniversary, the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) commissioned the Johnson Center for Philanthropy at Grand Valley State University to assess the impact of MCFYP. Drawing on surveys, focus groups, archival documents, and interviews with youth participants and adult advisors and leaders, this report documents the impacts on youth, the participating community foundations, and on the Michigan communities.
