Harvard-Yonkers logo April 21 - 14th Harvard-Yonkers Early College Awareness Program (VIRTUAL for Yonkers families)

For the 14th year, Club volunteers offer this unique program encouraging students and their families in resource-constrained Yonkers to attend college.

In this 2-hour program which will be held this year for 8th, 9th, and 10th grade families from Yonkers Middle High School, attendees learn:

  • what life in college is like and what students can get out of going to college (any college, whether a 2- or 4-year program)
  • how to successfully navigate high school in preparation for pursuing a college degree
  • what types of resources are available to finance college, including financial aid

The Program seeks to inspire and motivate students through early college awareness.  It features a variety of speakers, including speakers who may have themselves been the first in their families to attend college.  Normally held in-person, the event will run virtually this year. 

Typically we would have a number of volunteers present to help support this event.  This year, because the event is virtual, we will need fewer.  If you would like to learn more about this program, please contact Jeewon Park at jeewonpark123@yahoo.com.  Please click HERE to make an online donation to help finance the program.
