"Say Yes Syracuse is a local, community-wide partnership that pooled resources and realigned assets to support Syracuse students in School and through college."
"Say Yes to Education was born in 1987 when its founder, George Weiss, promised 112 economically disadvantaged sixth-graders from one of Philadelphia’s toughest neighborhoods that if they could persevere to high school graduation, he would pay for their college education. Launched in 2008, Say Yes Syracuse represents the organization’s first effort to expand the spirit of Mr. Weiss’ original idea to a full community."

"It is the economic and educational hub of Central New York, a region with over a million inhabitants. Syracuse is also well-provided with convention sites, with a downtown convention complex. Syracuse was named after the original Greek city Syracuse (Siracusa in Italian), a city on the eastern coast of the Italian island of Sicily."
"The city has functioned as a major crossroads over the last two centuries, first between the Erie Canal and its branch canals, then of the railway network. Today, Syracuse is located at the intersection of Interstates 81 and 90, and its airport is the largest in the region. "
Type of community: Town
