Mission of the New York Foundation
The Foundation supports groups in New York City that are working on problems of urgent concern to residents of disadvantaged communities and neighborhoods. We are particularly interested in start-up grants to new, untested programs that have few other sources of support. We are enthusiastic admirers of the resilience and energy of New York's neighborhoods. We believe the vitality of its neighborhoods is the city's greatest resource.
