CPNYC Virtual 5K Fundraiser

CPNYC Virtual 5K Fundraiser

The Young Professionals Council (YPC) is a leadership committee for young professionals across New York City who are dedicated to supporting Children of Promise, NYC (CPNYC), a nonprofit organization based in Brooklyn, New York that offers cohesive and innovative programming to support children of incarcerated parents. Unlike any nonprofit organization, CPNYC co-locates a free after-school and summer program and a licensed mental health clinic.

CPNYC’s multi-faceted youth programming incorporates academic and creative engagement, therapeutic empowerment, and self-advocacy to create social change and justice.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, CPNYC quickly adjusted its services to support its children and families by:

1. Serving on the frontline, distributing Grab & Go hot meals, computers, cleaning materials
2. Providing financial relief in the form of gift cards and groceries.
3. Partnering with individuals, corporations and local businesses to address the pressing needs of families impacted by the devastation of COVID.

To support CPNYC in its response to the coronavirus pandemic, the Young Professionals Council (YPC) is launching this virtual 5K fundraiser for CPNYC.

Join us on Saturday, October 3rd, 2020 and help us $10,000 and awareness of CPNYC’s tireless efforts to aid individuals and families impacted by COVID-19 and parental incarceration by registering for this fun virtual 5K event!
