After School Matters provides teens with opportunities to explore and develop their talents, while gaining critical skills for work, college and beyond.

Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, After School Matters has grown tremendously over the last two decades. This year, we will provide 20,000 program opportunities to teens. To do this, we need increased support from Chicago's corporate and foundation communities, as well as dedicated individuals.
We invite you to find a way that you can help make a difference in the lives of Chicago's teens. Get Involved
