Also, they provide lifeskills and career exposure workshops, college counseling, summer job placement, tutoring and mentoring. In 2005, it was among 406 New York City arts and social service institutions to receive part of a $20 million grant from the Carnegie Corporation, which was made possible through a donation by New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg. In 2014 it was named one of twelve recipients of the National Arts+Humanities Youth Program Award by The President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities.〔http://www.nahyp.org/awardees/publicolors-continuum-of-design-based-programs/〕 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Publicolor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
