July 2026 Black Youth Alliance of Wisconsin Wish List

At Black Youth Alliance of Wisconsin, we believe every young person deserves a place where they feel seen, valued, and supported. Through leadership development, mentoring, cultural connection, workforce readiness, and community-building opportunities, we work alongside young people as they build confidence, strengthen relationships, and create brighter futures.

What We're Seeing Right Now

This summer, our team continues to support a growing number of young people who are navigating housing instability while also participating in our programming. For many, BYA is more than a program—it's a consistent place to find trusted adults, basic necessities, a meal or snack, and a sense of belonging.

As more youth walk through our doors, everyday supplies disappear quickly. Hygiene products, snacks, reusable water bottles, backpacks, notebooks, and cleaning supplies all help us create a welcoming environment where young people can focus on learning, building relationships, and reaching their goals instead of worrying about basic needs.

This month's wish list reflects the items our team is using most frequently to support youth throughout the summer.

How You Can Help

Every donation directly supports young people participating in Black Youth Alliance programming. Whether you're purchasing a backpack for a student, providing healthy snacks for an afternoon program, or helping stock everyday supplies, your generosity creates opportunities for youth to feel welcomed, prepared, and empowered.

You can purchase items directly from our Amazon Wish List and have them shipped to our office.
