Meet the Moment With Us.
Help Breakthrough New York students realize their potential.
Thanks to a record-breaking Giving Tuesday, we are already halfway to our End of Year Appeal goal. Join the momentum as we expand access to education in 2026!
Support Educational Access This Giving Season
Breakthrough New York provides a 10-year, tuition-free program that supports talented students from middle school through college and into their careers. As we reflect on 2025, we are deeply proud of what our students have achieved — and grateful for the community that makes that success possible. This year, we welcomed 82 bright, motivated students into our program, each one carrying big dreams and the determination to achieve them.
But the path to college and career has grown more complex, especially for students who are the first in their families to take that journey. Your support ensures they never walk it alone.
A gift today strengthens the full network that surrounds every Breakthrough student — Teaching Fellows and advisors, tutors and mentors, alumni volunteers, partner high schools and colleges, and the dedicated staff who guide each student on their ten-year journey. Thank you for helping us meet the moment. With your partnership, we can make 2026 a year filled with opportunity, access, and possibility for all of our students.
