  • Youth Ambassadors of Pacific Grove, creating local leaders of the future.

"Getting to be a Youth Ambassador of Pacific Grove was such a life changing experience! YAoPG gave me countless opportunities to grow as a public speaker and leader as we volunteered at, and hosted events. It provided me with a platform to help brighten my community while also developing a stronger connection to it and all its wonderful people. Thank you YAoPG for all you do!" ~ Claire Qasem Youth Ambassador 2022-2025
