Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why does NYS focus on global outreach?
NYS Global believes that all children — regardless of where they’re born — deserve the opportunity to grow through sports, education, and mentorship. Many international communities lack access to safe spaces, resources, or organized programs for children. Through our global outreach, we empower underserved regions by building programs that promote physical health, leadership, and long-term community development.
Where does NYS Global currently operate?
Our outreach programs are active in several countries including Colombia, Vietnam, Myanmar, India and Thailand. Previous work has been done in Uganda, Cambodia, China, Laos, Honduras and Dominican Republic. Each region focuses on unique needs such as orphan care, youth sports development, education, and community leadership training.
How are children selected for sponsorship or care?
Children are identified through local partnerships, community leaders, and outreach coordinators. We prioritize children who are orphaned, living in extreme poverty, or affected by conflict or illness. All children are cared for in safe, nurturing environments with access to education, healthcare, and emotional support.
