Our Programs

Oasis serves over 1,600 students in after-school programs throughout Oasis Brooklyn, Manhattan, and the Bronx. Children enrolled in our programs are engaged in healthy learning activities from the time they are dismissed from 3:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. Our programs include homework help, sports and recreational programming, visual and performing arts, and literacy enrichment.

Oasis programs are funded with a combination of government grants, fees from parents and philanthropic contributions. Our publicly and philanthropically funded programs operate in underserved communities and are free for families. Most of the children in these programs need a great deal of academic support and have few other after school options. Without Oasis, many of theses children would go home to unsupervised apartments and watch hours of TV or hang out on unsafe streets where they are prone to being enticed into dangerous behaviors. Our fee-based programs offer high quality after school experiences that are affordable to working families. Consistent with our community-oriented philosophy, all our fee-based programs have financial aid opportunities available to students based on need.
