Ecosystems of Support

Since the founding of the Vickery Meadow Youth Development Foundation (VMYDF), we’ve been proud to build lasting partnerships with organizations that believe in the power of community. These relationships are the backbone of our work in youth development in Dallas. Our partners have shown unwavering support, walking alongside us with shared purpose and deep compassion. Together, we strengthen the reach and effectiveness of our after school programs in Dallas, opening doors to opportunity, education, and empowerment for young people.

Through these collaborations, we’ve seen firsthand how unity fuels meaningful progress. Whether it’s through mentoring, resource-sharing, or program expansion, our community partners consistently show up—and their impact is tangible. Their dedication not only amplifies our work, but it also helps cultivate a more connected, resilient youth development network.

As we honor these powerful partnerships, we are reminded that collective action builds the foundation for a brighter, more inclusive future. VMYDF is grateful for every partner who plays a role in shaping a community where all youth can thrive.

Through their Credera Community Impact initiative, Credera provides volunteers for our Mock Interviews, College Signing Day, and other large events. Additionally, VMYDF was chosen as one of of Credera's Nonprofit Consulting Leadership Program pro bono initiatives. With Credera's help, we were able to re-design our website and begin to think strategically about fundraising strategies.
VMYDF was chosen to be Ibex's primary beneficiary in 2023. Their young men's business organization provides volunteers at many of our large events, as well as provides weekly volunteers for our EAGLE Scholars Thursday Night Meet Ups. They host an annual golf tournament in the spring and a gala in the fall, with all proceeds benefiting VMYDF.
