Mission Statement:
Media Power Youth inspires young people to engage with media in thoughtful and creative ways that support their physical and mental well being. We partner with schools and communities to invest in youth and sustain them in their journey to find balance in their technology use, such that it enriches rather than compromises their success in school and in life.

Media Power Youth relies on the generosity of individuals and foundations for the majority of our funding. We also receive income from government grants and programming fees.

2026 Goals:
Our goal is to empower youth to advocate for their own well-being by providing learning experiences on media, technology and healthy communication. We will help children and teens build social-emotional skills and introduce them to strategies they can use to stay safe when interacting in digital spaces. We will facilitate opportunities for young people to practice positive media creation and engage in the causes they care about, such as mental health, substance misuse, violence prevention, healthy relationships and protecting the environment. We will collaborate with our team of student advisors, MPY’s Youth Media Squad, to design programs that continue to reflect their lived experience. In 2026, we are raising funds to expand our media literacy and social-emotional, skill-building programs.
Fundraising Events:
Media Power Youth hosts educational events in partnership with organizations across New Hampshire. Subscribe to our newsletter to learn more about these opportunities. We also participate in NH Gives, Giving Tuesday and other fundraising initiatives throughout the year.
Giving Opportunities:
Life moves quickly for children and teens grappling with social media and tech devices that are on 24/7. Individual gifts throughout the year help us keep pace with the ever-changing social challenges that youth encounter in digital communities that can compromise their well-being. Contributions can be made online at mediapoweryouth.org/donate. Organizations, families and corporations can also sponsor programs, educational resources and/or operating needs. Contact us at 603-222-1200 to discuss these opportunities.
Volunteer Opportunities:
Volunteers are very much appreciated! There are opportunities to serve on our board of directors, assist with preparing programs, advise youth on advocacy projects and help us build awareness of the learning experiences we offer. If you have a passion for youth development and helping young people navigate our media-driven world, please reach out to us. We’d love to meet you!
