Celebrating four outstanding alums

On Dec. 6, City Year hosted its first-ever virtual Homecoming celebration for all 29 U.S. sites, where along with fun games and reminiscences, this year’s Alumni Leadership Award winners were announced! We’re so proud of our nearly 40,000 alums and we’re excited to honor these four new award recipients, each of whom exemplifies one of City Year’s key values: Social justice for all.
