Supports our YES! Youth Environmental Summit
Dear Prospective Partners:
On behalf of Youth from across the First State, we thank you for your interest in supporting the seventh annual Delaware Youth Environmental Summit in 2026. Sponsors are essential partners in ensuring that the Summit is free and accessible to any interested Delaware high school student and their teachers. In 2025, more than 750 Delaware high school students and their teacher-advisors representing more than 44 public and private high schools and youth groups from across Delaware participated in YES! which featured keynote speakers, panel workshops, educational exhibits, electric cars, and informal learning opportunities. Each year a student leadership team is responsible for organizing all aspects of the Summit, meeting from August through February.
We are thrilled to announce that plans are well underway for the next YES! summit scheduled for Friday, February 20, 2026 at the Chase Center in Wilmington which will allow even more students and teachers to attend!
The Summit aims to be educational and inspirational, fostering and encouraging Delaware’s youth to take leadership roles on environmental issues, in Delaware, the United States, and globally - wherever their lives might take them. Time is spent developing school action plans for students to bring about a growing network of certified green schools across the state, to save energy, reduce waste, and improve our health. We want to encourage their leadership as advocates on a wide range of environmental issues, from climate change, social justice, tackling plastic pollution and fostering a culture of zero waste. A hybrid model now allows us to have an in-person learning environment while bringing in speakers from across the globe.
We invite your participation in the 2026 Youth Summit by becoming a partnering sponsor. Sponsorships ensure the event continues to be free to all interested students, covering all costs associated with the event, including the facility rental, food & beverages, honorariums and speaker fees, software and technological needs, web site costs and event management, and swag for the students including reusable bags, water bottles, and participant t-shirts.
For more information, please feel free to contact us.
Thank you in advance for your support of the sixth annual statewide Youth Environmental Summit! We look forward to seeing you February 20, 2026!
Your support will enable more students from across Delaware to attend YES! for FREE, and put together an amazing summit for students, educators, and many others. After all, aren't we all stakeholders in the Earth's future?
