"You see, idealism detached from action is just a dream. But idealism allied with pragmatism, with rolling up your sleeves and making the world bend a bit, is very exciting. It's very real. It's very strong."

-Bono

 

We at Youth Converts Culture began with a dream, a collection of strong ideals packed with loads of potential energy.  We learned early on that this spark was nothing without the fuel.

 

Our first venture was in Perry County, Alabama.  Leadership Alabama Class 22, led by Michael Patterson, raised more than $25K to launch this first Youth Converts Culture event.  This support, along with support and recognition from the following have catalyzed Youth Converts Culture:
