YEP Billings Youth Empowerment Program Montana - YEP Billings

About YEP

This Program in Billings is for disadvantaged youth who need help with funding for extracurricular school activities. Such as; soccer, football, softball, basketball, music endeavors, or tutoring services, because of their family’s disadvantaged financial status. The premise of this Youth empowerment program is that no child should be unable to participate in the activities they desire. It is meant to give the youth in our community a chance to fulfill their dreams, one kid at a time!

Help our youth!

The “Youth Empowerment Program” (YEP) started with the dream Serena Anderson had. “This program is so near and dear to my heart because when I was a teenager I was accepted into the volleyball and basketball team and unfortunately my single parent mother of four kids was not able to afford extracurricular activities. It crushed me so much. One night when I was crying myself to sleep from the hurt of not being able to play sports I told myself, “When I grow up I am going to help kids in this situation! No kid that has a great desire to play sports should be able to.”

Local Nonprofit

Our board reviews each application quarterly from the youth in our community. It is funded partially by Royal Realty’s proceeds. As the development of the foundation occurs we will be submitting grant applications to non-profit organizations. We also invite businesses and community members who are as passionate as Royal Realty to make a difference by sponsoring these deserving youth. Make a difference in a disadvantaged youth in your community!

The Vision

Her vision has come true! She is now the successful owner of Royal Realty and is giving back to the kid’s in need within the Billings community. Again, calling all other businesses who would like to take part to sponsor a child. You will be glad you did!
