Relationships are a big part of reason that NYPL's BridgeUp after-school program works for Matthew. When he gets to the Bronx Library Center, he gets a snack, checks in with his mentors and friends, does homework, and gets to spend time on personal projects, including his electric skateboard. He says the program has a "great positive vibe" and is motivating him to greater academic success.
