Governor's Committee on Scholastic Achievement Awards at The Pierre Hotel

The Governor’s Committee on Scholastic Achievement (GCSA) is a nimble nonprofit that partners with schools and corporations to provide one-to-one workplace-based mentoring across the four years of high school (and beyond!) in order to equip young people from under-resourced communities for college and career success. GCSA provides youth with unique opportunities to experience first-hand the “world of work,” develops relationships between mentees and mentors who can serve as role models, and provides innovative guidance to students as they develop their goals and focus on their future.
