Watertown Daily Times | NNY Community Foundation and its Youth Philanthropy Council award grants
Watertown Daily Times | NNY Community Foundation and its Youth Philanthropy Council award grants: Watertown High School students learned an important lesson about money Tuesday: just because you have the cash doesn’t mean you have to spend it all.
That’s exactly what members of the fall group of the Northern New York Community Foundation’s Youth Philanthropy Council at Watertown High School did, as they made $9,500 in grant recommendations to the foundation’s board of directors, instead of the full $10,000 they were allotted.

This past fall, 12 year old Sierra Scott along with her mother attended a quarter auction benefiting a cancer patient. Sierra enjoys making duct tape bracelets and had some with her that night. Sierra, knowing that many cancer patients need help with things like transportation to their treatments, decided to sell her bracelets that night at the auction and donated all the money raised to Nanticoke’s Cancer Care Services. Sierra took the microphone and talked to the crowd about her plans and the guests were more than happy to purchase bracelets. In November, Sierra donated the money to the Cancer Care Center and says she plans to do more fundraising for cancer patients. In addition to her bracelets, Sierra is making clay charms.
