Your support of City Year Rhode Island is far more than checkbook philanthropy. It helps City Year corps members put their idealism to work by tutoring and mentoring school children, reclaiming public spaces, and organizing after-school programs throughout the state.
There are several ways in which corporations, individuals, and philanthropic organizations can partner with City Year Rhode Island:
TEAM SPONSORSHIP
As a team sponsor, your organization will support a team of 6 to 14 City year corps members. You will work with our service partners and your corps member team to address community issues and develop bonds with the communities of Rhode Island. In addition, your team sponsorship will give your employees the opportunity to serve their communities in exciting and innovative ways.
