New York Cares is NYC’s leading nonprofit connecting tens of thousands of volunteers to local opportunities that provide essential support to New Yorkers who need us most. The central source for service in New York City, we’re part of its fabric and tapestry, leading it forward to a more equitable future for all. Simply put, we’re great at doing good.
New York Cares offers a diverse range of community-driven service programs addressing city-wide inequities, including education, hunger, and social isolation, as well as ensuring the revitalization and preservation of our schools, parks, gardens, and community spaces.
We see a need and solve it. We have the drive to do what’s right. And the determination to overcome apathy. That’s the spirit of New York City–and New York Cares.
We inspire New Yorkers in service to build a more equitable NYC. We give people, donors, and partner companies opportunities to make true impact-driven change through programs that align with the goals of our communities.
New York Cares is at the heart of it all, playing a vital part in making New Yorkers thrive. The work we do is life changing. And challenging. It’s why we provide a team to support our volunteers, collaborators, and contributors on their journeys. Giving them the power to take action.
