Company’s support helps fund programs to benefit urban young adults
BOSTON, June 2, 2014
– BNY Mellon, a global leader in investment management and investment
services, announced that it is the presenting sponsor of Year Up
Boston’s 10th Annual Fore Success Golf Tournament, which is being held June 16, 2014, at the Weston Golf Club in Weston, Massachusetts.
This is the second year for the company’s sponsorship, which is
supported by BNY Mellon Investment Management, The Boston Company Asset
Management LLC, Mellon Capital Management Corporation, The Newton Group,
The Alcentra Group, and Standish Mellon Asset Management Company LLC.
“Year Up envisions a future in which every urban young adult will
have access to education, experiences, and guidance required to realize
his or her true potential,” said Casey Recupero, executive director of
Year Up Boston. “Our mission is to close the opportunity divide by
providing young adults with the skills, experience, and support that
will empower them to reach their potential through professional careers
and higher education.”
Headquartered in Boston, Year Up has 13 sites across the United
States and has served more than 8,500 young adults since it was founded
in 2000.
“The return of BNY Mellon as our presenting sponsor for the second
consecutive year will help advance us toward our goal of increasing the
number of students we serve by 50 percent by 2016,” Recupero said. “Our
success depends on the tremendous support of employers like BNY Mellon
and its subsidiaries.”
“Year Up’s training programs combine hands-on skill development,
college credits and corporate internships; and they have helped many
individuals achieve success,” said Joanne Jaxtimer, BNY Mellon Regional
Executive for New England. “It is a wonderful organization that uses a
holistic approach to place young adults on a viable path to economic
self-sufficiency.”
BNY Mellon is a long-time supporter of Year Up, having donated more
than $400,000 since 2003. BNY Mellon is also involved in many of Year
Up’s programs, including establishing a formal internship program for
Year Up students and hosting an annual event where students can showcase
investment knowledge to BNY Mellon and community experts.
