ORGANIZATION: New York Cares

  • 11 people are interested

Give hundreds of New York City high school students the support they need to increase SAT scores and get into college. SAT preparation classes can be prohibitively expensive, widening the equity gap for high-school seniors from lower-income areas. You’ll work weekly with groups of two to five students throughout the school year. You’ll see their confidence and abilities grow and know you played a big part in changing their lives. It’s about more than increasing test scores - your commitment shows your students that someone believes they’ve got what it takes. SAT Prep projects run from mid-October to mid-March on weekday evenings and Saturdays at 35 locations throughout the city.

Becoming a New York Cares volunteer is easy. To become a volunteer you must make an account on our website and do a volunteer orientation.
