We're excited to share that ZYEP received a $25,000 Judges' Award at the UpTide Showcase in New York City on Jan. 28! That funding is going directly toward building ZYEP’s endowment, which will ensure that our sports, art, dance, nutrition and culture programs continue for generations of Zuni youth.This recognition isn’t about us as an organization. It’s about our community, our Zuni children and their birthright to reach their full potential. We are deeply grateful for this award, and for our fellow cohort members, who are doing such incredible work in their own communities.Read more here: www.zyep.org/zuni-youth-enrichment-project-wins-25000-national-award-to-strengthen-long-term-supp...
