The Summit YMCA Achievers participated in their annual college tour, traveling across four states. High School students from Summit, Maplewood, Parsippany and Union began their journey on Sunday, June 24 for the week long-trip. College visited were Howard University, Georgetown, Virginia Union U, Morgan State, and Penn State.

Our Achievers Program motivates and encourages young adults by giving them the support, direction and opportunities to pursue their personal, academic and career goals. Strong adult role models from the community make all the difference in the life of a child — and make our program highly successful.
