We are Boys Hope Girls Hope of New York
Boys Hope Girls Hope of New York helps motivated high school students rise above disadvantaged backgrounds. Our goal is to graduate young people who are physically, emotionally, and academically prepared for post-secondary education and productive life, breaking barriers so they can become community-minded leaders.
Boys Hope Girls Hope firmly believes that young people have the power to overcome adversity, realize their potential, and help transform our world. They create these successes when we remove obstacles, support and believe in them, and provide environments and opportunities that build on their strengths.
LOCAL IMPACT
In our unique residential program, scholars become a part of our community and, for 5 days a week, live in our dorm-style residence halls. They are surrounded by a community of role-model staff and volunteers that work to provide enrichment and support. Through many different avenues, our program is constantly enriched by the outside support of our volunteers and partners in the surrounding area.
See how Boys Hope Girls Hope is prioritizing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
