Why Support NYC ACT-SO?
ACT-SO is more than an academic program for high school students where only a select few display their abilities.  ACT-SO is an attempt to thwart the vicious cycle of low expectation and low scholastic achievement that is plaguing communities throughout the nation.  In order to achieve our goals, we need to obtain the financial support of all civic-minded individuals and corporations.

New York City ACT-SO has made a difference by providing a positive environment for African-American youth.  The impact is evident among the former participants as demonstrated from their achievements, enthusiasm, increased confidence and vision for success.  A review of past New York City ACT-SO students indicates that approximately 100 percent of all participants completed high school, and approximately 90 percent of all local medalists entered college or pursued professional careers.
