The Lawrence Family Foundation will MATCH your donation!
As we prepare to celebrate exalt's 20th Anniversary Gala, we are excited to also announce that the Lawrence Family Foundation—a valued partner of exalt since 2020—has generously contributed a $100,000 challenge gift.
Donate now, and every dollar you contribute to exalt will be matched, doubling the impact of your support!
Make a special anniversary gift now to honor this milestone—and to honor the thousands of court-involved young people we have helped thrive through education, paid internships, and long-term mentoring and guidance over the last two decades, and the thousands more we will help in decades to come.
For two decades, exalt has helped young people reconnect to education, gain meaningful work experience, avoid further justice system involvement, and build pathways to long-term success.
The results speak for themselves: 95% of exalt participants never recidivate, and 98% stay in school.
“I saw young people who were court-involved, disconnected from school, not ready for the world of work…I saw those young people in exalt classes, excited about learning, having a desire to grow and succeed. I saw them transform and get some of the best internships in New York City.”
“It was the second day of the class….and it just clicked…I looked at the lack of me wanting to go to school …and I said, ‘this is not going to be my story.’”
Whether or not you attend the Gala, making your gift now—while the Lawrence Family Foundation is generously matching up to $100,000—will help more young people access educational support, job readiness and career development training, paid internships, scholarships, court advocacy, and a caring community committed to their success.
Everyone can participate—individuals, foundations, and corporations can all play a vital role in advancing exalt's mission and impact.
Make your gift today, to celebrate 20 years of impact—and to help us build a better future over the next 20.
