LENORA — Join Nex-Gen as we celebrate 10 years in serving northwest and north central Kansas youth, schools, and communities.

Nex-Generation Round Up for Youth Inc. funds, promotes, and supports educational projects, career development, and community programs focused on the youths in northwest and central Kansas. We educate students about local career opportunities, as well as offer programs in career development, entrepreneurship, and internship.

Through these efforts, we have fostered a positive sense of community and encouraged many of our youths to remain in the region or return home to prosper.

This year marks the organization’s 10th anniversary of operation. That is a decade of impacting almost thousands of youths, teens, and college students across our service areas with life changing skills and knowledge. This milestone has enabled us to reflect on our past and look forward to the future with optimism.

Join us on the evening of Saturday, October 21 for the Night with Nex-Generation Gala.

The event is the perfect opportunity to explore Young AmeriTowne, learn more about Nex-Gen Internships and our other wonderful programs, eat a terrific meal, connect with youth stakeholders, and make a lasting impact through our silent auction. (Lots of great items are already pouring in!)

RSVPs are needed by September 29 for our meal count, but will be accepted through the day of the event. 

If you can't attend, but would like to donate or contribute an item to the silent auction (and for all other inquiries), please contact Nex-Generation Executive Director Jacque Beckman at [email protected] or call 785-567-3222.
