Inner-City Scholarship Fund's

Project YESS Leadership Committee

Project YESS, through the efforts of an impressive leadership committee consisting of volunteers from diverse industries in New York City, raises funds and grant awards to inner-city Catholic schools for necessary capital improvements. Since its inception, Project YESS has raised over $4 million for 189 projects. These grant awards have not only preserved a safe environment for inner-city students, but complement the tuition assistance that Inner-City Scholarship Fund provides to nearly 8,000 students. Project YESS allows Principals to keep students safe and structures updated, without using the dollars that are already budgeted for educational purposes or scholarships.
