Welcome back, New York Edge! 🏫🎒 This week, over 100 New York Edge sites across the 5 boroughs and on Long Island have opened their doors for the school year! Every year brings growth for students — a student too shy to pick up an instrument in October is performing on a stage in the spring. A kid who was quietly falling behind in math finds an adult patient enough to sit with him until it clicks. A girl who has never played on a team learns what it feels like to be counted on. THIS is the New York Edge impact. 💫 We can’t wait to see what this year brings! Want to be a part of the excitement? Learn more at newyorkedge.org/careers.

New York Edge nurtures each child’s gifts and talents so they can blossom 🌷 🎥 ABC7 takes us into the lives of Mia, a New York Edge student who discovered her gift for theatre, and her mother, Thalia, who has the ability to continue working after her daughter finishes school. Thanks to New York Edge’s free afterschool programs, 35,000 students are enrolled in activities from soccer, dance, career readiness, cooking, animation, podcasting and more. Families are not only given the comfort of childcare, but know that their child is finding their passion. 💫 #newyorkedge #abc7news #nycpublicschools #afterschoolprogram

Thank you FreshDirect for providing New York Edge 101X students with an inspiring Speed Mentoring experience! 🥗🥕 Hosted at FreshDirect’s Bronx headquarters and warehouse, 20 students connected one-on-one with employees who shared their career paths and offered valuable advice. No two academic and professional journeys are the same, therefore, students gained unique insights from each mentor. The day also included a personal tour of the warehouse and offices, providing students with a firsthand glimpse into the company’s daily operations. And, of course, the experience ended with a nutritious lunch of sandwiches, salads, and fresh fruit generously provided by FreshDirect. 🥪 We are incredibly grateful to Marc Rosen, his team, and all the FreshDirect volunteers who shared their time to inspire the next generation 💫

Minguez. 💭 “We believe in innovation and working with the best and the brightest. Every one of our kids is top notch. We’re going to make sure that they fly and we really want you to be a part of it in any way you can” ~ Rachael Gazdick, New York Edge CEO. 💭 ”I know that we are doing is more than sports and arts. We are doing technology, career readiness - we are doing the total package to adress the children’s needs in totality… Many of our children would have no where to go if they didn’t have an organization like us” ~ Jimmy Vacca, New York Edge Director of Government Relations. 💭 “New York Edge is one of our premiere providers that is really providing wholistic services that change communities and transform young people from early childhood through post-secondary” ~ Sandra Escamilla, DYCD Comissioner. 💭 “Nonprofits are also big employers. They are economic engines in communities” ~ Annie E. Minquez, Executive Director of the Mayor’s Office of Nonprofit Services Monica also met with students from the Learn & Earn program to hear about what their future holds thanks to New York Edge’s career readiness programs.

New York Edge reposted this
United Way of New York City has officially kicked off the 2026 Resiliency Fellows Program! The program was developed in partnership with New York Edge as part of our United We Prepare initiative created in collaboration with Verizon and United Way Worldwide. We recently kicked off this program with an inspiring orientation in which we had the opportunity to meet this incredible group of young leaders. This hands-on, paid fellowship gives students an opportunity to learn about emergency preparedness, climate resilience, leadership, and community engagement. We can't wait to watch them grow into confident leaders and trusted voices in their communities. Follow along this summer as our Resiliency Fellows learn, lead, and help build a more prepared and resilient New York City. This is just the beginning.
