Empowering Futures! Summer activities at Future 5

Summer Enrichment includes a visit to the Met!

Future 5 student members enjoyed a field trip to The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York to learn about the Harlem Renaissance, organized and accompanied by 100 Black Men Of Stamford. Sixteen students were selected to attend the trip, based on their academic motivation and participation throughout the school year. Many thanks to our tour guide, Valarie, Justin Stevens, and our other chaperone, Warren, for accompanying us on this cultural outing. We learned so much!

Future 5 Members give back through Pollinator Pathways Clean-up & Revitalization Project at Kosciuszko Park

Helping Hands: Future 5 students rolled up their sleeves to continue to work in the gardens at Kosciuszko Park, learning about local plants while weeding and mulching. With our long-standing partnership with Pollinator Pathways, we're proud to have helped create and maintain this beautiful space that didn't exist a few years ago!

Three Cheers for our Volunteers!

Many thanks to the 100+ Future 5 Volunteers who tirelessly give their time to be a College Coach, Tutor, Mentor, Next Track Coach, Community Service Coach or Driver and so much more! We couldn't do it without you!

At our most recent Future 5 Volunteer Recognition event, we were proud to honor Sue Rich, Carolyn and Rick Brook, Ellen Petersen, Jim Fox and David Wiegand for their outstanding service.

We're grateful for The Community Fund of Darien!
