We teach and train young professionals to be committed partners and advocates working towards community-based change. As today’s young professionals, we are hungry to make a difference on issues we care about, but many of us lack the tools, knowledge, and connections to be effective agents of change. We want to support equitable solutions to systemic problems, not just as a reaction to social media and current events, but as part of our daily lives. Positively impacting our communities is not a task for the future. It’s an imperative today. 

In our four-month, after-work program, young professionals build capacity for local nonprofits while also gaining the knowledge and experience to become better volunteers, donors and community advocates. YCore was founded in 2014 by a group of Stanford alumni who believed in the power of young professionals to add value to the social sector–now, not later. In just four years, we've mobilized 250+ young professionals who have donated 21,000+ hours and $2M in project value to more than 35 Bay Area nonprofits like Hack the Hood, Kiva, Compass Family Services, Ella Baker Center and more.
