Welcome to the Year Up Chicago's Commencement Ceremony!
Dear Class 19,
On behalf of Year Up Chicago, we want to extend a big congratulations and best wishes to Class 19. Despite all odds—a global pandemic and rapid mid-internship transitions—you persisted! Your legacy, Class 19, will be one of resilience. We are immensely proud of your ingenuity, adaptability, and compassion. It is our privilege to be with you on this journey.
The next chapter holds exciting new adventures and your Year Up family will be there to collaborate, empower, and support you along the way. We encourage you to stay connected by tapping into the alumni network and checking out the resources available to you at yearupalumni.org.
As graduates of Year Up, you are poised to do incredible things and we can’t wait to see the change you create in the world.
Congratulations again!

I PLEDGE that as a member of the Year Up National Alumni Association, I will continue to uphold and promote Year Up’s mission and core values. I will strive for excellence and realize my potential. I will use my time and talents to contribute to the success of Year Up, its students, and its alumni. I will take action in the movement to close the Opportunity Divide. I take this oath freely, as a promise to lift while I climb, and to be a lifelong ambassador of Year Up.
