The GO Project believes that sustained, individualized, and responsive academic intervention, beginning in the early elementary years, is the most effective pathway to closing achievement gaps for New York City public school students.
Through year-round, holistic, and partnership-based out-of-school time programming, GO equips K-8 students with the confidence and skills to make academic gains, perform at or above grade level, enroll in high-performing middle and high schools, and graduate on time.
Founded in 1968, the GO Project has grown from a group of dedicated volunteers serving 30 students on the Lower East Side into a $3 million organization creating equal opportunity for more than 700 students citywide.
