The Youth Volunteer Bank was created in 1997 to promote youth volunteerism. The goal is to facilitate, promote and reward youth that volunteer in our community. This ongoing program is a cooperative effort between The City of Boynton Beach, local businesses and individuals, volunteer organizations and youth volunteers.
Since the beginning of the program, 659 youth have recorded over 54,500 volunteer hours and $21,850 in savings bonds and prizes has been awarded.
