SASF's MISSION: To help bridge the academic performance gap among under-achieving students by extending the school day and year with wholesome, skill-building activities designed to improve New York City children’s academic performance, health and wellness, attitude towards school, self-confidence, character and values, and opportunity for lifelong employment. OVERVIEW: Sports & Arts in Schools Foundation (SASF), a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, is one of the largest providers of school-based after-school programs in New York City and the metropolitan region. SASF serves more than 50,000 students in over 300 public schools. These students typically live in low-income neighborhoods and attend academically struggling schools in grades K-12. Programs run year-round before and after school, on Saturdays, over school holiday periods and during the summer. Programs, provided free of charge, are primarily funded with public monies that are supplemented with private funds. Programs include sports and recreation, creative arts, homework help, supplemental education services, academic enrichment and other activities designed to complement and enrich students' educational experience.
