City Year Champions' Challenge

I serve because...City Year Miami plays a vital role in shaping the future of our community by supporting students in under-resourced schools and helping them reach their full potential. Through a team of dedicated AmeriCorps members, City Year provides academic support, mentorship, and encouragement that helps students stay on track to graduate and succeed in life. Their work not only improves educational outcomes but also strengthens the fabric of our neighborhoods by investing in the next generation of leaders. In a city as diverse and dynamic as Miami, City Year’s presence ensures that every student—regardless of zip code—has access to the tools and relationships they need to thrive.

I serve on the Board of Directors because I believe deeply in the power of education and community service to transform lives. City Year’s mission aligns with my values and my commitment to equity, opportunity, and youth empowerment. Supporting this organization is not just a professional responsibility—it’s a personal passion. Raising funds and encouraging gift giving to City Year Miami is essential because it directly fuels the programs that make a measurable difference in students’ lives. Every dollar invested helps sustain the corps members who serve daily in classrooms, and every gift is a step toward a more just and vibrant Miami. Together, we can ensure that all students have the support they need to succeed.
