Goddard Riverside believes high-quality programs are essential in shaping young people into future leaders and contributing adults. In our cause area ‘Preparing Children & Youth for Success’ our programs support children and youth to thrive, contribute positively, and be prepared for the next stages in their lives.

This year’s proceeds support our students at Goddard Riverside and the Isaacs Center with scholarships for college or post-secondary training. Any donation amount makes a difference in the lives of these students! Read about our latest scholarship giveaway: Scholarships Help Bring College Dreams to Life.

Goddard Riverside’s 2024 Bash is back on Wednesday, October 9th at 6:30 PM! The Bash will return to a new location the Bryant Park Grill, at 25 W 40th Street with Bryant Park serving as a stunning backdrop. We will be in the fully enclosed and tented south garden.
