We are a youth-serving organization that supports connection, youth leadership, communication and community.


End the Year with Kindness
You have the chance to support after-school activities for all kids, regardless of socioeconomic background. Here at SCYC, we believe that every child deserves to explore their interests and pursue their passions, regardless of financial means.
That's why we are launching an end-of-year donation drive to sponsor an extra 10 students for free after-school activities. It costs 2,000 per student per year for access to extracurricular programs and clubs. One donation can make a difference in the lives of many.

Upcoming Events
School Community Youth Collaborative (SCYC) is committed to providing quality before and after school programming that engages and inspires the youth of our community. With a focus on a wide range of activities that include anything from chess to kayaking, we strive to give students the opportunity to explore and discover their interests and talents and enrich their learning experiences. Our team of experienced professionals provide support and guidance to our students to help them achieve success both now, and in the future. Join us and discover a world full of endless possibilities!
