NextGen Steering Committees meet regularly to discuss and plan important UNICEF campaigns, annual goals and upcoming events. They set the overall tone for NextGen in various cities (LA, NY, CHI, ATL and SF), while also creating new programs and educational opportunities for the next generation of UNICEF supporters. Additionally, committee members will activate year round on small to large scale activities and events, fundraising, UNICEF campaigns and skill sharing or volunteer opportunities.
Read the full Steering Committee role and description here. We especially encourage you to apply to a Steering Committee in your city if you are interested in getting involved with NextGen at a deeper level.

NextGen Growing Cities
Our Growing Cities are pockets where NextGen is emerging and are comprised of anywhere from 4-50 pledging members. We are looking for a group of leaders that will propel their communities to become more engaged with UNICEF's work through becoming a NextGen member and beginning to host NextGen events and activities. To host a NextGen 101 to increase awareness and membership in your city, please reach out to ceustace@unicefusa.org for the Powerpoint presentation, and a briefing on the process of jump-starting your NextGen calendar of events for the year.
For more information on how you can join, or take on a leadership role in one of our Growing Cities, please email nextgen@unicefusa.org
