2 Local Youth Selected for International United Way Board
Two local youth were selected to serve on Youth Volunteer Corps’ (YVC) International Youth Advisory Board and to represent the local YVC of Anderson County on an international level. Krystal Young, of T.L. Hanna High School and Lindsey Loparo, of Oakwood Christian School were selected to serve on the International Youth Advisory Board.
“The International Youth Advisory Board is such a valuable part of YVC, so we look forward to seeing all that they will accomplish this year,” said David Battey, president and founder of YVC. “We love seeing all that can be achieved when outstanding youth from throughout the U.S. and Canada come together.”
Each International Youth Advisory Board member will serve a one-year term, providing input on all aspects of YVC programming on an international level while also bringing new ideas back to YVC of Anderson County. Board meetings will take place remotely once a month with the exception of one in-person meeting at the YVC Summit in October. They will be traveling to Kansas City to represent YVC of Anderson County at the Summit, along with 7 other local Youth Advisory Board members.
Some 10,000 youth volunteer with YVC each year throughout communities in the U.S. and Canada, and these 22 board members will be representing each of these volunteers on the board.
