Committee Leadership Roles and Meetings

"Youth United has created leaders within its group that will become the leaders of the future. YU is completely run by the members of the club. We have amazing supervisors that help us along the path, but let us take charge. The committee members organize all of our successful events, such as the Ultimate Frisbee Tournaments and Battle of the Bands. With Youth United, we have the chance to step up and make our voices heard. It is one place that we can all go to and feel like we're making a difference and taking action, and not just sitting on the sidelines. Our Youth United is helping to develop the kind of leaders that we need in this world." -Emily Litzow, Germantown High School representative

In addition to fundraising and volunteer needs, Youth United is also seeking hardworking youths of all ages to fill committee leadership roles. For more information about Youth United fundraising, committee and volunteer opportunities, please contact Crystel Hardin at 761-4771, ext. 210 or at chardin@memphishabitat.com.
