Global Kids

Global Kids, with the support of NYC Department of Education, NYC Department of Youth & Community Development, NYS Office of Children and Family Services and The MacMillan Family Foundation has doubled down on its work to make college accessible to all the young people we serve. During the 2023-24 school-year, we expanded our college access work to over fourteen NYC Public Schools where we serve as the Community School or Out-of-School-Time provider and we are on pace to increase the college acceptance and enrollment rates in these schools over the next three years. Watch this brief video and hear from our Global Kids’ graduates and staff on the impact we have made so far. Also stay tuned for more #CollegeAccessDay posts to see how we are ensuring our Global Kids are #CollegeBound. #GKALLDAY #Educate #Activate #Inspire

On this #ThankfulThursday, we express sincerest gratitude for Global Kids’ VP of IT & Operations, Alan Kaula, recipient of this year’s Evie Hantzopoulos Staff Excellence Award at last month’s Annual Gala, held on May 7th at the Council on Foreign Relations. Our milestone 35th year of serving NYC youth also marks an incredible 10-year milestone in Alan’s GK journey. During his decade of service with Global Kids, Alan has worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that our network of youth development professionals is able to operate on a day-to-day basis, and that our staff and students have the tools and technology they need to be successful. This past year in particular, Alan was instrumental in securing and moving the GK Headquarters into our beautiful, brand-new space in midtown Manhattan, and has gone above and beyond to ensure that it will be a safe and welcoming space for both our staff and our youth. Thank you, Alan, for all the incredible work that you do for Global Kids! #ITprofessionals #gratitude #staffappreciation #nonprofit #GKAllday
