For 95 years, Crispus Attucks York has stood as a pillar of hope, empowerment, and opportunity in our community. From education and youth development to workforce pathways and cultural enrichment, our mission has always been rooted in one powerful belief: WE, NOT I. This year, as we participate in Give Local York 2026 — York County’s biggest day of giving — we invite you to be part of our continuing story. 95 Years of Service. One Powerful Day of Giving. Give Local York is more than a fundraiser. It’s a 24-hour movement that unites our community around causes that matter. In just one day, we have the opportunity to make a lasting difference in the lives of the youth and families we serve. To celebrate our 95th anniversary, Crispus Attucks York has set an ambitious goal: $20,000 in 24 hours. Every dollar raised will directly support our educational programs and provide summer program scholarships for underserved youth in our community — ensuring access to safe spaces, academic enrichment, mentorship, and life-changing opportunities. Why Your Support Matters For many of the young people we serve, opportunity isn’t guaranteed — it’s created through community support. Your generosity helps remove barriers and open doors. It provides: Academic support and enrichment Mentorship and positive role models Exposure to new career pathways Summer learning experiences that prevent academic loss Safe, structured environments where youth can grow with confidence When you give, you’re not simply funding a program. You’re investing in a future leader, innovator, entrepreneur, or community change-maker. The Impact of Your Gift Your gift becomes: A scholarship that allows a child to attend summer programming Supplies that spark curiosity and creativity Access to experiences that expand horizons Encouragement that builds confidence and self-belief What may seem like a single donation becomes a ripple effect of opportunity, empowerment, and hope that strengthens our entire community. Join Us. Make an Impact in 24 Hours. For 95 years, our community has stood together to uplift one another. Now, we’re asking you to stand with us once again.
