Blue Ridge Foundation, New York City, Donor

“Summer Search sets high expectations, values self-reflection, and focuses on results – for itself as an organization, but even more importantly, for the young people it serves. Summer Search is truly committed to seeing that the students in its program reach their full potential.”

– Matt Klein, Executive Director
