Mission and Program Overview

Mission

For more than a decade, Serve Your City (SYC) has provided life-changing experiences and opportunities for at-risk DC students, giving Black and Brown children access to rowing, swimming, yoga, tennis, tutoring, and inspiring experiences often not readily available to children from under-resourced families. Since March 2020, SYC has also served as the infrastructure hub for Ward 6 Mutual Aid, a partnership of more than three dozen organizations that came together to share resources and save lives after the COVID-19 pandemic struck the District.

Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

“A draft of the Form 990 is circulated to the entire board for comments and questions. Once everyone has had a chance to review and comment, a final return is prepared for the treasurer's final review and signature.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“The only key employee/officer is the organization's Executive Director. The entire board reviews the ED's compensation toward the end of each year and compares it to the compensation of leaders of comparably-sized organizations in the DC area. After considering the ED's prior year performance and the information on comparable organizations, the board proposes and votes upon the ED's compensation for the coming year.”

IRS990/MissionDesc0For more than a decade, Serve Your City (SYC) has provided life-changing experiences and opportunities for at-risk DC students, giving Black and Brown children access to rowing, swimming, yoga, tennis, tutoring, and inspiring experiences often not readily available to children from under-resourced families. Since March 2020, SYC has also served as the infrastructure hub for Ward 6 Mutual Aid, a partnership of more than three dozen organizations that came together to share resources and save lives after the COVID-19 pandemic struck the District.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Public Health Campaign: SYC produced a public health campaign to provide health education resources to help the community understand how to avoid COVID-19. As vaccines were developed, SYC also created a campaign about the safety and importance of the vaccine. SYC works to equalize access to testing and the vaccine by creating and running its own hotline as well as delivering free COVID-19 testing kits on a weekly basis.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Youth Education and Enrichment, encompassing three projects: 1) Free School for Unlimited Youth - this program offers free in-person and online tutoring and participation in co-curricular activities that have been historically cost-prohibitive for our local Black and Brown youth. During the pandemic, SYC's virtual tutoring program matched 130 students with tutors living in our community and from DC's local college campuses. Enrichment activities include rowing, aquatics, tennis, equestrian, yoga, trapeze, and the arts. 2) Addressing the Digital Divide: SYC has distributed over 1000 devices (including laptops, WiFi access and hot spots) to youth and adults in Washington, DC to enable students in the community to access virtual schooling during the pandemic. 3) SYC Tech: trains local youth to refurbish and then redistribute computers in their own communities.

The organization provided thousands of individuals with assistance in the form of food, water, hygiene products, masks, COVID-19 tests, and technology and internet access. Due to the nature of the distributions, SYC is unable to determine the precise number of distinct individuals assisted; however, the organization estimates that it serves 2,000 individuals per week.
