Carlos Alvarez Challenge

In 2018, Carlos Alvarez, through the Impetus Foundation, made a powerful commitment to help secure sustainable, private sector funding that will help propel our work forward: a $450,000 challenge grant to inspire and promote sustainable multi-year giving. Mr. Alvarez has challenged City Year to raise $50,000 each year through 2022.
