Since 1928 the Young Men’s Business League (YMBL) has operated the Austin Sunshine Camps. Today we are one of the oldest and most respected social service organizations in Austin. Our volunteer members work to raise funds, actively assist in the operation and management of our community programs, and serve in board governance.
Each year we serve over 800 kids through our programs including the Austin Sunshine Camps, Sunrise Leadership Program and Sunshine Scholarships Program. We attempt to bring about community wide change in the lives of at risk youth in Austin by providing opportunities for personal development, the skills necessary to succeed in school and life, and the hope for a better future. All programs are provided free of charge to participants chosen based on family and income criteria.
As a 501 (c) (3) non profit organization, all donations to the Austin Sunshine Camps are tax deductible.
