“College seemed like such a big and unattainable thing, but through YPIE it became very attainable.” – Daniela, NYU Graduate

Hello Kris,

The end of the school year is a time for celebration.

We celebrate our college graduates who are leveraging their education for great jobs. We celebrate our recent high school graduates as they continue their education.

We celebrate the growth of our program in Yonkers, our first graduating class of seniors in Jersey City, and our inaugural class of YPIE Nashville Scholars.

At a time when many feel uncertain, we're grateful for your belief in YPIE students and ensuring they are on the path to a bright future.

Hope you enjoy this video of YPIE college students guiding our recent high school graduates.

Wishing you a wonderful summer!

Sam Wallis

Executive Director
