Greystone, Project Destined Expand Social Impact Partnership
Greystone and Project Destined, a social impact platform founded by former Carlyle Group executive Cedric Bobo, have expanded their partnership with two new engagements to increase exposure and opportunities for emerging leaders in commercial real estate.
This summer, Greystone hosted an intensive program that introduced high school students from Comp Sci High in the Bronx to key CRE finance topics and matched the students with Greystone mentors to guide them in real-world deal analytics. They also visited a Greystone multifamily development project in Harlem to learn how a project progresses from spreadsheets to hammers and to see first-hand how a property is managed once complete.
This month, Greystone also launched a new bridge career development program open to students at HBCUs and other colleges nationwide.
“We appreciate Greystone’s entrepreneurial approach in taking students under their wing, going above and beyond, and growing these programs with us,” said Bobo.
