City Year Greater Philadelphia
Today in Philadelphia, nearly 60% of students aged 6-17 do not have
a safe, structured place to go after school. Less than 35% of students score
proficient in math and less than 45% score proficient in reading. On average,
1 out of 4 students entering 9th grade will not graduate high school.
You can
change the course of these students' lives by volunteering with City Year.

Achievability

Graduate! Philadelphia
Graduate! Philadelphia works on raising awareness of the issues and
leading a multi-partner collaborative approach to solutions, policy and systems
change, and innovative programs. It was created because today's economy demands
well-educated workers practiced at complex and creative problem-solving.
