With your help, our Community Needs Fund is helping address our city’s most pressing needs.
The Trust hosts a number of giving circles, educational events, and collaboratives. Join our Giving Collective, a Funder Collaborative, or attend events.
It’s the perfect way to ensure your name lives on as a champion of the causes dear to you after you’re gone.
From supporting education to protecting the environment, you can create a fund in The Trust to make a meaningful impact on the issues that matter most to you.
There are tax advantages for donors aged 70-1/2 or older who make contributions from their IRA directly to a public charity, such as The New York Community Trust.
You make gifts, and get an immediate tax benefit. Then you recommend grants to charities of your choice: We vet the nonprofits, write the checks, and handle the paperwork.
