How you help

Youth Hope Cincinnati Inc. (YH) is a 501(c)(3) organization started in 2010, run entirely by volunteers with no central office.

About us

We work directly with youth and families in the Over the Rhine and West End neighborhoods every day. Our programming spans from youth employment at Findlay Market, free summer camps at Ziegler Park, partnership with Cincinnati Youth Collaborative (CYC) for Saturday Hoops, and the construction and operation of a full-care youth home near Rothenberg school. Our families and youth struggle each day with transportation, emergencies, educational inequity, financial struggles and housing. Our hardworking team consists of many dedicated individuals who selflessly devote their time to empowering youth. Some members of staff grew up in Over the Rhine and the West End, still living and working there. The need to serve is paramount each and every day.
