HELP US UNLEASH THE TALENT IN THE NEXT GENERATION OF CREATIVE YOUTH.

Empower Creativity, Transform Lives

Our new creative space is here—and with your support, it can become a hub of innovation and opportunity for Black and Brown youth, creatives, and entrepreneurs in our community.

To date, we’ve engaged over 1,000 youth in design and tech programs and helped alumni of our creative apprenticeship program earn over $1 million in wages through placements and referrals. With your help, we can achieve even more.

Every donation helps us:

  • Provide free or low-cost workshops in design and technology.

  • Equip our media lab, makerspace, and print production shop with cutting-edge tools.

  • Subsidize access to coworking and creative spaces for local makers and artists.

Your gift fuels creativity and empowers the next generation to design, make, and build their futures.

Join us in transforming this space into a vibrant resource for our community.

Together, we can create even more opportunities and transform lives—one creative mind at a time.


Youth Design Center is the first non-profit, youth-led creative agency and innovation hub in East Brooklyn. We are a 501(c)3 organization providing gateways for young people to learn marketable design and tech skills, access postsecondary education, achieve economic mobility, and engage in placed-based community revitalization.
