Create Your Dreams (CYD) is..

CYD is a long-term enrichment program, dedicated to nurturing the talents and dreams of underserved students living in Northwest Atlanta. Since 1994, we have provided a safe place for students to grow and develop educationally and emotionally,  from elementary to high school.  Most students participate in CYD for nearly a decade before they graduate from high school, allowing us to provide the foundation and knowledge they need to build better lives.

Almost 40 alumni return to CYD after graduating and continue to pursue their dreams as young adults.  Our alums give back to CYD by volunteering with our students, serving as board members, and donating to our annual fund.
