Young Voices Wins Big at AF's 30th Anniversary Gala

Friend,

We’re thrilled to share that last night in Washington, DC, Young Voices took center stage at America’s Future’s 30th Anniversary Gala—and walked away with two major honors that reflect the strength of our mission and the impact of our network.

Program of the Year: Contributor Program
Talent Market named Young Voices’ Contributor Program the 2025 Program of the Year! This award celebrates our commitment to developing young communicators who champion liberty in the media, and it comes with a $10,000 prize to support the program’s continued growth. With more than 100 young writers producing hundreds of media hits monthly, we’re proud to be recognized as the leading pipeline for free-market talent.

Caleb Franz Inducted into the 1995 Society
Program Manager Caleb Franz—one of our important people behind the Contributor Program—was inducted into AF’s prestigious 1995 Society, honoring the next generation of liberty leaders. A U.S. Army veteran and now author of The Conductor: The Story of Rev. John Rankin, Caleb is helping reintroduce forgotten heroes of abolition to the public. His leadership and mentorship at Young Voices have helped shape the careers of dozens of rising writers.

From all of us at Young Voices, thank you for supporting our work to shape the future of freedom—by the next generation, for the next generation.

Support Our Work

Sincerely,

Casey Given

President & Executive Director
