Offering the Center for Talented Youth’s challenging academic programs to all bright children who qualify, regardless of their family’s ability to pay, is a crucial part of our mission. In 2007, parents, friends, alumni, foundations and corporations contributed $4.26 million in financial aid - allowing us to award scholarships to 18 percent of the 10,300 students who attended our summer programs.  The average family income for these students was $31,164.  Thirty percent of the 270 students who attended CTY China and CTY Mexico did so with a partial or full scholarship, opening up a world of possibiities to these students. 

Your gift allows CTY to nurture the next generation's brightest minds from Newark’s Central Ward to Oakland’s Laurel neighborhood – and in many cities and towns between.
