Your donation will support The Whitney M. Young, Jr. Scholarship Program of the New York Urban League. Scholarships are awarded to exceptional NYC high school seniors who demonstrate strong potential for academic achievement, are of excellent character, have proven leadership capabilities and demonstrated commitment to community service and extra-curricular activities. NYULYP donates annually to the scholarship fund and has helped disburse almost $25,000 to scholars in the past three years.
In 2021 alone, we granted scholarships to 24 deserving graduating seniors and hope to increase this number in 2022! Every donation will assist young New Yorkers from underserved communities to follow their educational dreams.
New York Urban League Young Professionals (NYULYP) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to enable African Americans and other underserved ethnic communities to secure a first-class education, economic self-reliance, and equal respect of their civil rights through programs, services, and advocacy.
