The New York Foundation is a philanthropic fund that supports community organizing and advocacy. It emphasizes the resilience of New Yorkers and values the leadership and experience of community groups in confronting systemic inequity. The foundation backs grassroots initiatives that confront structural barriers and aim to build a more just and inclusive city. Based in New York City, New York, the organization operates within the philanthropic fundraising services sector and serves nonprofit groups pursuing social change. Its work centers on empowering community groups and their leaders to advance civic engagement and advocacy efforts. In September 2018, the foundation partnered with StoryCorps to create a series of short interviews with trustees, grantees, and former grantees that illuminate the core concerns of their work.
