Out-of-School Time
Children and youth should be able to choose from a variety of high-quality afterschool, summer, and mentoring programs that create vital opportunities for exploration, creativity, learning, and meaningful connections with caring adults.
The vast majority of children’s hours are spent not in the classroom, but out of school: in libraries, parks, living rooms, and more. Recognizing that inspiration and important learning happen everywhere, we invest in high-quality afterschool programs, engaging summertime experiences, and meaningful mentoring programs. By exploring the arts, robotics, volunteerism, or something else entirely, kids unlock new interests and discover their infinite inner potential.
