Say Yes Scholarships | MyCom Cleveland Youth Programs

Say Yes was founded in 1987 by money manager George Weiss who promised to prepare 112 Philadelphia sixth graders for college and to pay their college tuition if they graduated high school. In 2008, Say Yes grew to help entire communities make a similar commitment to every public high school student. Say Yes Cleveland, which launched in January 2019, is the fourth community chapter in the country.

Testimonials

“MyCom Youth Development Initiative aims to engage via education, such amazing out-of-school opportunities as they recognize that youth who are bullied are more likely to feel disconnected from school."

Curtis Benjamin
"MyCom has extended hundreds of youth exceptional opportunities to grow, expand their knowledge and express their voice in so many ways. I can honestly say that the youth are not the only ones who are learning, growing and having wonderful exposure opportunities. This adult is a beneficiary of countless blessing as well."
