Who We Are
We are fund-raisers helping healthcare professionals and educators better serve the children in their care. We are also connectors, helping to inform and engage our fellow young people. We aren't here to preach values or impose ideas, but instead we're hoping to remove the barriers that prevent kids from reaching their full potential.

What We Do
We sponsor seasonal charity events in New York City. The goal of these events is twofold: first, to raise money for charities benefiting children’s education and healthcare; and second, to introduce the leaders of tomorrow to charities that inspire them and with whom they can build life-long relationships.

Education
The Federal Budget for children's education grows every year, but not fast enough to keep up with the growth of the US' youth population. The dropout rate for 16 - 24 year-olds was at 7% in 2011. The pupil/teacher ratio in elementary and secondary schools is currently 15:1. 29 countries outperform the United States in Math, 22 for science and 19 for reading. Arts and Sports programs are being cut from school budgets ever year.
Healthcare
There are over 7.2 million uninsured children in America. That's one in ten. 1,241 children are born without healthcare every day. Food insecurity affects over 12 million U.S. households and many children struggle to get the kind of nutrition that will allow them to grow into healthy adults. Every year, the United States spends $2.8 trillion on healthcare -- that's $8,920 per capita -- and that figure continues to grow.
