  • 2025 Give Local York

    Crispus Attucks York is thrilled to be participating in Give Local York once again!! York County’s biggest day of giving, and we’re calling on YOU to help us make a powerful difference in just 24 hours. This year, we’ve set an ambitious goal to raise $50,000 in just 24 hours, and with your help, we believe we can achieve it! Every dollar donated goes directly toward funding summer enrichment camp and educational scholarships for underserved children in our community. Why Your Support Matters Every child deserves the opportunity to explore their potential, discover their talents, and dream big. At Crispus Attucks York (CAY), we believe in giving rise to possibility, not just for today, but for our children's future. Your donation helps provide: 🎓 Educational Scholarships – Giving families the financial support they need to access life-changing learning opportunities. 🌞 Summer Enrichment Camps – Hands-on STEAM activities, outdoor adventures, and experiences like horseback riding that broaden young minds and nurture creativity. 🧠 Safe, Structured Environments – Keeping kids engaged, inspired, and surrounded by mentors who care deeply about their success. The Impact of Your Gift Imagine a child, unsure of their abilities, stepping into a summer camp and discovering a passion for science through a robotics project. Picture that same child gaining confidence, making new friends, and returning to school in the fall more motivated than ever. That’s what your support creates. When you give to Crispus Attucks York during Give Local York, you’re not just making a donation — you’re giving a child the tools to believe in themselves and rise.
