Mission Statement

The only thing worse than kids giving up on school is if we give up on them.

About This Cause

The Problem The gap that stands between students and their potential At City Year, we believe education has the power to help every child reach his or her potential. However, in high-poverty communities there are external factors and obstacles students are faced with every day that can interfere with their ability to both get to school and be ready and able to learn. Our Approach At City Year, we’re working to bridge the gap in high-poverty communities between the support the students in the communities actually need, and what their schools are designed to provide. In doing so, we’re helping to increase graduation rates across the country, and changing the lives of the students we serve. Our Impact Nationwide Through our data-driven approach and by coming together with our partners and schools, City Year is continuing to make a measurable impact in the lives of the students and communities we’re serving, and we’ve got the results to show for it.
