A grant of $10,000 from the Stoddard Charitable Trust will fund year-long programming at the Dynamy Youth Academy. Youth Academy is a five year, after-school leadership and college access program for promising, first-generation high school students with strong academic potential and college aspirations. The program’s comprehensive approach – combing academic supports with community service, internships, and assistance with all aspects of college planning – helps to ensure students’ acceptance to college and persistence to a degree. With the generous support of the Stoddard Charitable Trust, we are working to ensure that all students have equal access to an exceptional education, leading to a rewarding career.
