My Nonprofit Reviews

The Opportunity Network is an amazing program for under-served demographics of New York City's schools. By working to garnish the budding professionalism, networking, and educational skills of various students, OppNet is able to work against all odds. The program has opened my eyes to countless careers in otherwise unexplored fields like law or creative media. I have also met tons of professionals and started to build my network. My network comprises of various lawyers, CEOS/Executives, and creative film makers and artists. The program's professionalism classes on skills such as the simple hand-shake or public speaking translate to great success at job interviews and internships--which are guaranteed by OppNet for six years. OppNet also helps with college applications, SAT/ACT, and visiting colleges. These are options that I wouldn't have had otherwise--especially the SAT/ACT tutoring. Overall, the Opportunity Network is working to bridge the growing gap in our society, and trying to ensure that all demographics have access to opportunity and a network, or the Opportunity Network.
