Your donation will help support the Youth Documentary Academy in three ways: underwriting tuition for youth who are accepted into our production program, underwriting of our Youth Media Matters outreach to schools, or support for our public television series ‘Our Time.’ 

Thank you for your support. The Youth Documentary Academy is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and all gifts are tax deductible to the full extend of the law. (For more information regarding charitable giving and/or if you need our Tax ID #, please contact Director Tom Shepard at tom@youthdocumentary.org)  

“YDA is rare in its location, structure, staffing, and most importantly, accessibility. By subsidizing tuition, funders are helping to level the playing field in a career traditionally dominated by the financially advantaged.”      

 SUZAN BERAZA, Director, Mountain Film Festival, Telluride
