Youth Advisory Committee
The 2011-2012 Youth Advisory Committee (YAC) is made up of students from around Emmet County. Thanks to a matching grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, the Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation was able to establish the $1 million endowed Youth Fund. The YAC is responsible for making grant recommendations from the Youth Fund to benefit young people in our area.
