Age is But a Number: Kid-Run Nonprofit “Youth Philanthropy Council” Defies Impossibility

Meet Augustus Holm, Founder and Chairman of “California’s largest kid-run non-profit,” the Youth Philanthropy Council (YPC). Officially established in 2019, YPC is the brainchild of a group of young friends, including Coronado resident and Board Member Emilio Perez, with a desire to help other children and teenagers in San Diego. Raising over $3 million in cash and shoe donations since its inception, YPC has transformed the landscape of thinking that age creates a barrier “to philanthropy or making a significant impact.”
