Together, We’re Building a Brighter Future for NYC Youth

Dear LEAP Community Member,


Today is Giving Tuesday, a global day of generosity, and we’re calling on all LEAP staff to help amplify our year-end campaign. We aim to reach $100,000 by the end of the year, and you can help us achieve that goal! 


Yesterday, our donors received an email in which we shared the story of Greimy, a sixth grader at Jonas Bronck Academy in the Bronx. For Greimy, his first art class with LEAP was life-changing. He discovered his potential, explored his creativity, and began to dream big:

"I was trying to make my drawing inspire somebody. I’ve never done an art class before, and I loved it—it was the best class I ever had!”

Donations are already coming in, and several supporters have created their own fundraisers to spread the word about LEAP’s transformative programs.


Will you help us to amplify the power of art this holiday season?

Here’s How You Can Help Us Make This Possible:
