Citizens Committee for New York City
Have an idea to improve your neighborhood? Citizens Committee can help! Because New York City is *our* neighborhood!
Our mission is simple: to help New Yorkers -especially those in low-income areas- come together and improve the quality of life in their neighborhoods. Residents are uniquely situated to define and act on the issues affecting their communities. When provided with modest support, neighborhood and school groups can effectively mobilize community resources to improve quality of life.Citizens Committee for New York City supports these grassroots efforts by offering grants, skills-building workshops, and further technical support in the form of project planning assistance and an equipment share library.In 2018, we provided over 500 projects with $1.9 million in grants and services, and our staff facilitated workshops for over 1,000 social entrepreneurs. Since 1975, we have promoted the spirit of volunteerism, local engagement and social justice that drives our work.
