Proud to join the Thrive Together Collaborative

We are honored to share that CYC has been invited to join the Thrive Together Collaborative, an initiative launched by the Jeremy Lin Foundation in partnership with generous donors. The collaborative brings together community-based organizations serving AAPI and underserved youth in New York City and the San Francisco Bay Area, with a shared commitment to expand opportunity and support where it is most needed.

Across both regions, one in four AAPI youth face economic barriers, yet only a small portion of philanthropic funding reaches AAPI communities. The Thrive Together Collaborative aims to help change that by investing in programs that uplift young people through vital resources, mental health support, and youth development opportunities over the next five years.

We are proud to join a cohort of mission-driven organizations working to strengthen futures for young people who deserve access to opportunity and care. This partnership reflects a growing recognition of the needs faced by AAPI youth and the importance of community-centered approaches in addressing them.

CYC is grateful for this chance to grow together with fellow organizations and continue strengthening programs for San Francisco’s youth. Our work being included in this effort reaffirms what our community already knows: when young people have support and belonging, they thrive. We look forward to contributing to this shared vision so that all youth can move toward their futures with possibility and hope.
