Tomorrow’s Leaders Today
Tomorrow’s Leaders Today (TLT) is a youth leadership program of Leadership
Lackawanna that provides high school juniors the opportunity to meet with community
leaders and decision-makers. In addition to leadership development, the students
must complete a philanthropy curriculum conducted by the Scranton Area
Communication Foundation.
TLT seeks to help participants realize what they can do to make a difference in their
community as young philanthropists and to develop their leadership skills further.
The Scranton Area Community Foundation is proud to partner with Leadership
Lackawanna in introducing the concept of philanthropy and grantmaking to our
region’s youth, who are the future of Northeastern Pennsylvania. The Scranton Area
Community Foundation has allocated $20,000 for the 2023 – 2024 TLT class to grant.
The TLT students chose Project areas for the 2023-2024 TLT grant cycle.
