CitiFinancialis committed to helping the YMCA of Greater Nashua educate local youth using state of the art technology. After donating $7,500 in 2007 to help launch a Media Center in the Merrimack YMCA, Kristene Dauteuil, Branch Manager of CitiFinancial in Nashua presented the YMCA with a check recently for $5,000 to purchase educational software for the center.
Currently, 130 children attend the Merrimack YMCA's childcare and full and part-time pre-school programs and an additional 90 children come to the Y for after school care. The Media Center is not only used by these youth to teach them valuable skills that they will care with them for a lifetime, but also hosts computer literacy and other classes for the community.
The Citigroup Foundation focuses its grants primarily in building communities and entrepreneurs, financial education, and educating the next generation.
