Who We Are

We leverage the collective action of philanthropy to champion NYC’s youth and families.

Mission

Through strategic grants to community-based, system, and advocacy partners, we leverage the collective action of philanthropies to support the well-being of New York’s children and families who are impacted by the foster system or at risk of being impacted by the foster system.

Approach

We center the perspectives of impacted communities, and embrace collaboration and continuous learning to ensure our efforts are responsive to the needs of the field. Members work in partnership and demonstrate a collaborative spirit, valuing compromise, mutual trust and respect, an interest in supporting one another, and new ideas.

Since 2018 our work has reached

3,000

children, teens, and families in New York City.
