Global Youth Philanthropy-Boston created a nine members GYP Students Board in 2021, and it has been making great contributions to GYP and its missions.

At the end of 2022, five of the board members will step down from their board member duties. We have created a new GYP Students Advisor Board for “retired” board members to let them connect with GYP in a flexible way.

Three outstanding high school students join GYP 2022-2023 new GYP Students Board. They are Darvensky Daniel， Steven Alexander Miall, and Lucy Yuxuan Zhang.
