City Scholars 
        Foundation®

 

Every day, neighborhood after-school programs help thousands of inner-city kids stay in school, out of trouble and on track to a brighter future as tomorrow's leaders, educators and professionals, despite the challenges of poverty, gangs, drugs and teen pregnancy.

Building and sustaining an effective after-school program, however, is no easy feat. Leaders themselves often struggle to avoid burn-out, as they are constantly challenged to do more with less.

Established in 1993, City Scholars Foundation® trains, coaches and inspires extraordinary non-profit leaders, helping them build and sustain quality neighborhood after-school programs thousands of inner-city youth depend upon to become inner-“City Scholars®.”
