Mission
YouthCanDo is a youth-founded nonprofit that connects academically strong high school students with military candidates of all ages.
We provide free, high-quality ASVAB tutoring to help future service members reach their full potential and access meaningful career pathways in the U.S. military.
At the same time, YouthCanDo creates authentic leadership opportunities for high school students to serve their community, grow in maturity, and develop lifelong skills through teaching.
Why We Exist
YouthCanDo was created with a simple belief:
When young people are trusted with real responsibility, they grow.
By connecting academically strong high school students with individuals preparing for military service, YouthCanDo creates a space where learning, leadership, and service happen together.
Tutees receive free academic support and encouragement.
Student tutors gain maturity, confidence, communication skills, and real leadership experience.
Everyone grows — together.
