Our Foundation was founded over 12 years ago in Denver, CO, with the goal of providing educational programs, mentorship opportunities, and social support to at-risk youth. Our mission is to help young people realize their potential and prepare them for successful futures. The foundation has always focused on creating a nurturing environment where young individuals can thrive, offering guidance and resources to equip them with the skills needed to navigate life's challenges.

In the beginning, funding for the foundation came through an innovative partnership with AK BBQ. This collaboration allowed us to raise funds by selling food, T-shirts, cups, hats, and other branded products. This model not only provided necessary financial support but also helped raise awareness about our mission within the community. The partnership with AK BBQ has been integral to our ability to maintain and expand our programs, directly benefiting the youth we serve.

Now based in Las Vegas, we are working to establish a strong brand for Shakers Youth Foundation. Despite not being a 501(c)(3) organization, we continue to seek support from donors and sponsors, including individuals, businesses, and organizations committed to making a positive impact on at-risk youth. By contributing to our cause, supporters help us continue to provide essential services and opportunities that empower young people and foster their growth.
