About the event
On October 30 we gather to champion our Mary C. Tiedemann Scholars, our RIVER FUND Youth, and raise vital funds to help expand our RIVER FUND Educational Pathways Programs.
Investment in our Youth directly impacts their lives and most importantly their future…
By championing our Youth, we hope to show them they are worthy and, when basic needs are met, they can dream of bigger pursuits.
One in four children in New York City live in Poverty…
RIVER FUND approaches access to education as the main, realistic tool for our families to move beyond the lines of poverty. Our Cradle to College strategy starts with prenatal care and continues through college scholarships. Supporting our Youth, throughout their educational journey, not only leads to individual outcomes within their field of study, but more importantly, their gainful employment.
RIVER FUND operates, at its core, in a culture of care, respect and empathy.
When individuals lift themselves up, they lift up their families as well our Communities.
Education is the way forward!
The best part of who are is in the caring of each other.
