Y Scholars
A College Readiness, Academic Achievement, and Career Development Program for Minority Youth
The Y Scholars program is an extracurricular educational and team mentoring program that supports minority youth in the 5th - 12th grades that features leadership training, career exploration, character and values development, service learning opportunities, and support for the college application process. Volunteer adult role models - or Y Scholar Mentors - encourage participants to aspire to high standards, excel in school and attend college to achieve their goals.
Please join us on Saturdays through May, 9:30am at the Henry F. Pannell Learning Center, 3 Clay Street, Princeton! (unless otherwise noted) Click here for Y Sholars program overview.
Y Scholars Mentors needed!
Do you have 6 - 10 hours a month to change a young person's life in a positive and meaningful way? The Princeton Family YMCA needs adult volunteers who are willing to attend two sessions per month with middle and high school students, share in group sessions, and be matched with one or two students to encourage and support their achievement throughout the year.
