Access to nature shouldn’t depend on a school’s budget.
City to Sanctuary brings students from Title I schools in Upper Manhattan into the woods, wetlands and fields, every month, all school year. Your gift pays for a visit, a class or a season. Every dollar goes to the program.
“I have never touched a bird or a rabbit in my entire life. This memory is going to stay in my head forever. It was something magical.”
