“One of the most significant lessons I learned from the Academy is that I have a passion for finance, so much so that I decided to major in finance for college.”

Impact
Since 2021, our Career Academies have enriched the lives of New York City public school students by showing them firsthand what it means to work at some of our city’s top businesses. Graduates of the program leave with a deeper understanding of themselves as future professionals, more financially literate and with new skills valuable to success in any workplace.
“New Visions does a great job of structuring a program that is very well-thought-out and well-managed, so it makes it super easy for a volunteer to share about their experience and have a dialogue with students who are really excited and engaged and grateful to be part of the networking opportunity.“
