Meet Our 2024 Equity Interns!
In this week’s blog, we introduce the 2024 cohort of Equity Interns, dedicated to advancing educational equity by supporting the YMCA of San Francisco’s Power Scholars Academy. Join us in welcoming them for a foggy summer in San Francisco working, earning and mentoring in The Fillmore/Western Addition, the Mission and the Bayview districts!
