Kiarah Young

Communications Associate

A proud native of Sacramento, California, Kiarah Young crossed the country to earn a Bachelor of Arts in African American Studies and Civic Engagement from Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut. She currently serves as a Communications Associate at Fund II Foundation, where she manages the social media, website, and digital media efforts to amplify the foundation’s mission. As a Restoration Retreat alumna from 2019, Kiarah returned to Fund II Foundation in 2022 as a Youth Development Intern, later transitioning to a Communications Intern in 2023 before joining the team full-time in 2024. Before joining Fund II Foundation, she gained experience as an intern at Politico and Hearst, strengthening her expertise in media and communications. During her time at Wesleyan, she worked as a Marketing Assistant at the Resource Center for four years, documenting the stories of first-generation, low-income, and students of color. She also served as a tutor for the Center for Prison Education, helping incarcerated students pursue a college degree. Her passion for human rights, social justice, and community engagement fuels her work in digital media, where she strives to create accessibility and amplify unheard voices.
