$6,664 towards $20,000

“I like design because I feel like it’s a very broad field to get a job in. I like all kinds of art, but I feel like a lot of people want graphic designers at the moment. So, when I get out of college, I want to be able to get a job straight away. - Aleeia Townes, Design Intern


This spring, Wide Angle Youth Media welcomed 5 talented emerging creatives onto our team as year-long apprentices & interns. Over the course of a year, they will receive 500- 1,000+ hours of on the job training. To support all 14 older youth on our staff, during the month of May we’re raising $35,000 towards their summer wages. We believe strongly that young people like Aleeia and Brandon (pictured) should be equitably paid for their time and talents.

Our young content creators are eager to spotlight community organizations and social impact initiatives that address issues including mental health, food security, arts impact and police reform, as they build their portfolios and broaden their educational experiences. They are ready to develop new client pitches, lead casting calls, produce videos, refine design campaigns, and grow their own businesses.


Your generous gift will go directly towards paying a young person, so they can build the skills they need in the creative workplace. Give a gift today, and help them prepare for their next step forward.
