What is Kids N Culture: Kids
N’ Culture is an academic enrichment program designed for our less
privileged high school students. Our goal is to cultivate future
professional and community leaders through a culturally rich curriculum,
professional mentoring, and the opportunity to travel
for the first time on a fully subsidized international study tour.

12th grade students in the tri-state area

What is the cost:
The program
is competitive because the trip is FREE for students accepted. We ask
students to fund-raise $200 each to show investment and attendance, but
give students all the means to easily do so.
Now accepting applications for our 2016 program to Tanzania.
We are looking for students who want to be
cultivated as culturally aware leaders of tomorrow. Each year we select
20 students from the New York City area and immerse them in an academic
year-long program focused on a new cultural region of the world. In
looking at tradition, religion, race-relations, gender norms, and
political/industrial trends through a new lens, we prepare students to
be culturally sensitive before traveling abroad. During the tour,
students are able to sharpen their interpersonal skills and
international etiquette while immersing themselves within their
surroundings. Our students graduate from the program having completed
100 hours of academic content, a new diverse network, and a deeper
understanding of the world outside of their own. From various
backgrounds, our students come together as a cohort, forever unified by
the experience.
