We rely on the generous support of organizations and individuals to continue serving hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers each year.

Why Support Us?

By donating to New York Cares, you’re supporting the hundreds of organizations we work with citywide. We design programs to address issues like hunger and homelessness. We also recruit, train, and manage hundreds of thousands of volunteers each year. Fiscal responsibility is at the core of our operation, ensuring as many donor dollars as possible go directly to the communities we serve.

You can make a one-time donation or become a monthly donor.
