Mission: Student Sponsor Partners harnesses the
power of quality education and mentorship to help New York City
youth in underserved communities escape the cycle of poverty and
reach their highest potential.

Vision: Creating opportunities for students
today. Impacting their tomorrow.

ORGANIZATIONAL LEGACY & CONTEXT

Founded by Peter Flanigan in 1986, Student Sponsor Partners
(SSP) has been providing private high school education for

with the academic foundation and character development they need to

Thousands of students are supported by a sponsor and a mentor to
guide them through their high school years and beyond. SSP's record
of success is evidenced by the fact that more than 85 percent of

higher rate than that historically achieved by the New York City
public high schools. Over 50 percent of SSP high school students
graduate from college. SSP currently supports approximately 1,200
students a year.

Based in the Wall Street District of New York City, SSP has a
