Who We Are

Your-S-A is a U.S.-based nonprofit dedicated to empowering American students with the skills, confidence, and networks they need to thrive in life, work, and society. We provide concise, practical, and high-impact development programs that address the holistic needs of college seniors and soon-to-be graduates—an often overlooked but high-potential demographic. Our programs balance personal growth, social readiness, and professional skills to prepare students not just for their first job, but for a lifetime of success.

Our Mission

To empower American students through programs that foster life skills, career readiness, mentorship, and civic engagement. We are committed to delivering targeted, high-impact initiatives that help students grow, succeed, and reach their full potential.

Our Vision

We envision a future where every student has access to the guidance, skills, and opportunities necessary to achieve their goals and lead successful, socially responsible lives. By providing clarity, confidence, and connections at this pivotal stage, Your-S-A contributes to a generation of capable, resilient leaders.

Our Values

Rooted in support, care, and responsibility, Your-S-A strives to provide equitable access to development opportunities for students from all walks of life. We foster an environment that encourages learning, collaboration, and personal growth.

Unique Priorities

Unlike most nonprofits that focus on K–12 students or high-risk youth, Your-S-A targets college seniors with programs that address the real-world challenges of transitioning into professional and independent life. Our concise, high-impact format allows busy students to engage fully, while providing measurable outcomes attractive to universities, employers, and donors.
