Fundraising for Idaho Youth Ranch
Idaho Youth Ranch provides critical services to some of Idaho’s most vulnerable young people. Fundraising initiatives and donations make an immense difference for Idaho Youth Ranch’s ability to reach more struggling youth. Your fundraising is an investment in individual youth that ultimately strengthens communities across Idaho.
There are three ways to fundraise to help Idaho’s most vulnerable youth:
- Create a peer-to-peer fundraiser online. Click here to get started.
- Raise funds through your organization or business. For example, a restaurant donates a portion of proceeds, a store donates a specified dollar amount per sale, or an organization hosts its own fundraiser such as a car wash, bake sale, etc.
- Collaborative fundraisers hosted by Idaho Youth Ranch or third parties in collaboration together. These tend to be larger events.
