VIDEO: Moving Young People Forward

November 19, 2012 By Tom Niemisto, Video Production Specialist

GiveMN and Youthprise teamed up to highlight organizations that promote youth development and empowerment. Youthprise established a youth video contest to document and hightlight Minnesota nonprofits working to empower youth in their community.

Minnesota 2020 profiled Cycles for Change, a community bike shop in St. Paul that has an innovative program for youth empowerment in the Twin Cities. From earn-a-bike programs to one-on-one mentoring, empowerment comes from job training and transportation access.
