"YAP-I
has been an asset to NYAP and has done stellar work
from the very beginning."

In
order to do our work, we need you! This
means promoting the cause and supporting our work through
volunteering your time to plan an event or fundraiser,
or giving directly to the organization.
YAP
International provides information, consulting, training,
education, strategy, planning, promotion, and referrals
to tens of thousands of people every year through our
direct information, education, and referral programs;
and indirectly through our consulting, training, strategy,
and planning work. Being able to provide these services
on a diverse range of issues affecting children makes
us an invaluable resource.
Due
to good program planning and the work of numerous interns
and volunteers, we are able to operate on less than
$220,000 per year, including in-kind donations.
Although we accomplish a great deal on a small budget,
yet we still need your support to continue, let alone
expand.
If
you would like to make an online donation, click
here. You are also welcome to send
a check directly to our office at: YAP
International, 4545 42nd Street, NW, Suite 209, Washington,
DC, 20016.

the 'Perfect Gift
Humanitarian
relief and development agencies depend on organizations
like YAP International to ensure the public and policy-makers
are aware and better educated on these issues, that
policy development is heading in the right direction,
and to move these issues to center stage, nationally
and internationally.
Since
much of our administrative work is provided by interns
and our rent is an in-kind gift, nearly 90% of every
dollar goes directly to these activities (with approximately
10% going to general operating expenses).
To make a secure online donation using Visa or Master
Card (at Network for Good), click the button.
You
can make a gift go twice as far... by making it a challenge
gift.
Ask
your employer, they may already match charitable gifts,
or they may be willing to support the idea. Thousands
of companies match, double, or even triple contributions
made by employees, especially now that companies are
becoming more socially responsible.
If
not, provide with your gift the contact information
of the person or organization you would like to challenge
to contribute the same amount - or - double your gift,
and we will take care of the rest!
Send
your challenge gift to: YAP
International, 4545 42nd Street, NW, Suite 209, Washington,
DC, 20016 - or - make a secure online donation using
Visa or Master Card (at Network for Good), by clicking
the button, and send details of your "challenge gift"
to our Executive Director.
Whether
a wedding, a birthday, the holiday season, or any another
reason, giving a charitable gift in someone's name is
always in good taste. It is also a perfect gift for
someone who has everything!
Send
your gift, along with your name, name and address of
the person in whose name the gift is given, and occasion
for which the gift is being sent. We will send you and
the "gift recipient" a thank you letter.
Perfect
Gifts may be sent to: YAP
International at 4545 42nd St., NW, Suite 209, Washington,
DC, 20016 - or - make a secure online donation
using Visa or Master Card (at Network for Good), by
clicking the button below, and send details of your
"perfect gift" to our Executive
Director.
Again,
we need your help to continue our work !!
In
order to put your contribution to better use, contributions
of less than $50 will only receive an e-mail notice
regarding the gift for tax purposes, unless specifically
requested.
Contributors
of $50 or more, and those providing requested in-kind
donations, will receive a thank you letter recognizing
the value of their gift.
All
contributions of $25 or more, and those providing requested
in-kind donations, will be acknowledged on our web site,
unless the donor specifically asks to remain anonymous.
If
you have questions regarding contributions, contact
us.
