The support we needed. The future we are building.
Founding Members are the people, families and businesses helping Level Up move from a powerful idea to a dependable national community. Their support builds the systems behind every connection: safe programs, screened volunteers, tutoring, technology, school partnerships and experiences young people can look forward to.
THREE WAYS TO BUILD THE FIRST LEVEL
Every way you show up helps build what young people deserve.
01
Give
Make a founding gift, sponsor a Year of Community, or help fund the tools and experiences that keep teens connected.
02
Open a Door
Introduce a school, hospital, college, business, foundation or community leader who can help expand access and opportunity.
03
Offer Time or Talent
Tutor, teach, host an experience, donate a service or help build systems that make support easier to reach.
Recognition is always optional. Names, company names, and logos are shared only with permission. Founding support never provides access to participant identities, medical information, or direct contact details.
