Several members of CoreNet Global New York City Chapter's Young Leaders (YL) committee recently volunteered at the non-profit GO Project, working with students and their teachers on various enrichment activities, including martial arts, European handball, tennis, lacrosse, art, drama/creative writing, and theatre.
"CoreNet's young leaders recognize the importance of lending a helping hand to youth in need in our community," said Sarah Currie of VVA Project Managers & Consultants, who organized the event for the YL committee. "We hope the time spent with these children has been as helpful to them as it has been rewarding to us in terms of the insights we've gained into their lives and experiences."
The GO Project's mission is to positively influence the futures of low-income New York City public school children by providing critical academic, social and emotional support starting in the early elementary years. GO provides year-round educational and family support services to children who are performing below grade level and equips them with the confidence and skills needed to succeed at school, at home and in life.
