If you know you will not be able to attend one of our evening lectures, just call our office and offer to donate your tickets to our Youth Ambassador Program. Some students are able to attend the dinner and Q&A period because of the generosity of those who find they cannot stay the entire evening.
Over the years, Youth Town Hall has also produced speaker programs at local schools and other venues. Students have had the opportunity to hear newsmakers from astronaut Sally Ride to oceanographer Robert Ballard to local attorney James Parkinson. The past several years Jim Parkinson has provided hundreds of students with an intriguing program on literacy based upon his book, "Soldier Slaves, Abandoned by the White House, Courts and Congress."
Students wishing to attend one of our programs should check with the principal at their school for further information.
We would like to thank the major sponsors listed below and the many individuals who financially support our youth programs. In addition, we thank our board of directors, volunteers, school districts, and people like you who have made the programs so successful.
Should you own or control a private foundation and would consider donating to our Youth Programs please be in touch with the office. Desert Forum, Inc. is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) educational corporation, with donations tax deductible to the extent allowed by law and IRS Rules & Regulations.
