Founded in 1992, Apex for Youth empowers children from underserved immigrant communities in New York City to make their dreams possible. By connecting with professionals who volunteer to mentor and inspire, these children build their self confidence, explore academic and career goals, develop a sense of community and service, and gain leadership skills to help them overcome the many challenges they face. Together, we deliver worlds of possibility. For more information on Apex For Youth please visit: http://www.apex-ny.org/.
