By Faculty and Staff, Students

City Year is an education-focused, nonprofit organization that unites young people of all backgrounds for a year of full-time service to keep students in school and on track to graduation. At City Year’s 29 urban locations across the U.S., teams of trained young people called AmeriCorps members serve full-time in schools during the academic year as tutors, mentors, and role models. Members earn $7,395 towards an education scholarship and receive a biweekly stipend between $890 – $1,386, based on the state location. Learn more at City Year.

If you are unable to attend the information session but would like to schedule a one-on-one appointment with the City Year representative, Robert Humphrey, please contact Dawn Hernandez at dhernandez@albion.edu or 517-629-0332.
