Staff members from the $2.9 billion SAFE Credit Union based in Folsom, Calif., surprise staff members at City Year in Oak Park, Calif., with a $20,000 grant. City Year sends near-peer mentors to underserved schools in Sacramento to help students succeed. City Year representatives cheer students as they arrive to school each day to honor them for their hard work and to pump them up for the day. During class time, AmeriCorps members use positive coaching to help students overcome challenges that may lead them to dropping out of school. They also assist with tutoring students in math and English to stay on track to graduate with their peers.
