Our Approach
Brooklyn’s future is only as bright as we let our present be, and our borough’s youth deserve support systems that will allow them to soar to great heights. Brooklyn Org partners with organizations that help address gaps in educational outcomes and school climate for students of color, introduce youth to new skills and passions, and empower them to become leaders in their communities. We believe in leveling the playing field for our young Brooklynites by giving them the tools they need to reach their goals from day one.
