Project YANO is extremely grateful for our many individual donors, and the A. J. Muste Foundation for Peace and Justice @ajmuste.bsky.social. This year, we were one of three groups nationwide awarded their “No Justice, No Peace!” Award. Thank you for your support. projectyano.org/donate

The message continues, beneath a photo of a 2025 Sweetwater Unified High School career fair: inside a gymnasium, hundreds of students walk among exhibitor tables, with Project YANO’s table display in the foreground, surrounded by over a dozen young people watching other students spin a game wheel highlighting well-known people whose lives made or make social impact such as Harriet Tubman.

A Project YANO representative stands behind a lectern holding a glass trophy presented by the A. J. Muste Foundation for Peace and Justice. Beneath it reads, “This year, Project YANO was one of three organizations nationwide awarded the A. J. Muste Foundation’s ‘No Justice, No Peace!’ award.”

Three paragraphs of text atop a sunset photo background conclude the message, describing Project YANO’s outlook on the coming year, and highlighting the need for continued grassroots donations. The message concludes, “Thank you so much for your ongoing support. Give at https://projectyano.org”.
