YES! is a statewide summit for all Delaware high school students with an interest in protecting our Earth. This includes high school students who are residents of Delaware but may attend outside of Delaware, or any student of a Delaware high school (whether public, parochial or private) or home school in Delaware. The inaugural YES! was held in 2020 in Dover. Planning is now underway for the sixth annual event to be held on Friday, February 28, 2025.
YES! is a wide collaborative partnership of Delaware nonprofit organizations, educators, agencies, businesses, and students who want to make a difference by engaging Delaware's youth in issues and advocacy on environmental issues.
Are you passionate about what we're doing? Let us know! We are always looking for volunteers to help us make the student leadership team organize the summit. And, student leaders can apply each spring to be on the following year's planning team. The summit itself is open to all Delaware high school students at no cost. We're excited to have you join us!
Whether you help through monetary donations, volunteering your time, or spreading awareness of the summit, thank you. We couldn't make YES! a reality without the help of supporters like you.
