The Youth Employment Skills (YES) Program
YES is an on-base volunteer program for high school students and is offered at Fairchild AFB. This program, underwritten by the Air Force Aid Society (AFAS), is a joint effort between AFAS and Air Force Airmen & Family Services Flight to offer high school students an opportunity to learn valuable work skills, "bank" dollar credits toward their post-secondary education / training, and have a positive impact on their base community. Students will "bank" $4 in grant funding for every hour volunteered in an on base function and may accumulate as much as 250 hours over all 4 years of high school combined, for a potential maximum of $1,000 toward their future vocational-technical or academic endeavors. In addition, the base will be credited with $2 for every volunteer hour, to be used in support of base youth program enhancements (up to $10,000 per year). For more information, contact the Youth Center at 247-5601.
