Leadership Luncheon 2020

For 49 years, NYJTL has provided a safe place for children to learn tennis, receive academic enrichment, and interact with their friends and mentors. Our mission is important now more than ever as the city navigates the continuing COVID-19 health crisis.

On Wednesday, November 18, we will share three new videos, featuring NYJTL stories of resiliency, perseverance, and hope for a brighter future. We invite you to be inspired by this 25-minute program.

Donations are welcome but not required—register here.

With Special Thanks:

NYJTL is grateful for Lawrence B. Benenson and The Frances and Benjamin Benenson Foundation, who have generously underwritten the Leadership Luncheon for 35 years. Because of their generosity, all contributions directly benefit NYJTL.

NYJTL is grateful for this year’s early Luncheon sponsors
