The Young Americans® was founded over 50 years ago in Hollywood, CA. For all of these years our purpose has remained the same: The Young Americans is a charitable organization dedicated to the promotion of understanding and goodwill among people throughout the world through music, dance, performance, academic education and cultural interaction among Student Members and their audiences. It is the intention of The Young Americans organization that Student Members represent a mixture of religious and non-religious beliefs. Student Members will also have differing political persuasions. The Young Americans organization, however, does not endorse any political or religious agenda. Student Members are accepted into the organization based upon their talent and their interest in helping other students throughout America and the world to attain self-confidence, self-esteem, and respect for others through music, dance, and performance. The Student Members of The Young Americans are never paid as performers for the organization. As such, their participation is intended to be educational and not intended to be an occupation. The Young Americans are simply a group of talented young people who attend college level classes, sing, dance, teach others, learn from others, and entertain throughout the world.
