ASAS New York

After-School All-Stars New York (ASASNY) is the local chapter of the leading national organization that provides year-round, school-based, comprehensive after-school programs. ASASNY was established in 1995 and currently serves nearly 980 students per year by partnering with public school districts and community organizations.

Through individually tailored academic support, enrichment activities and sports, students gain the confidence and skills they need to do well in school, remain healthy and active, and become effective members of their community, inspiring and helping others in need.

ASASNY is a leader in the fight against the high school drop-out rate and the obesity crisis. Our long-term goal is to ready our students for fulfilling lives and careers in the modern workforce.

The success of ASASNY would not be possible without the generous ongoing support from parents, students, donors and Sponsors.
