The New York Community Trust is supported by hundreds of funds with varying levels of discretion for the Trust grantmakers to use. Program officers review proposals and identify the best projects to recommend to the board. The Long Island and Westchester divisions have their own guidelines and grantmaking processes.
Giving primarily is limited to non profit organizations in metropolitan New York, serving New York City and Nassau, Suffolk, and Westchester counties.
Proposals are accepted throughout the year. Proposals are reviewed and grant recommendations are prepared for board meetings each year:
Awards vary based on scope and size of project. Awards are up to $500,000. Most awards are less than $5,000.
