Booth Ferris Foundation: Strengthening NYC Grant Program

The Booth Ferris Foundation primarily focuses on strengthening New York through supporting organizations that enhance the capacity and infrastructure of the city’s nonprofit sector, particularly those addressing systemic inequity. The grant program is designed to support:

• Organizations providing capacity building, management, or technical assistance to other nonprofits in New York City.
• Work in advocacy or public policy for underserved communities.
• Entities supporting membership agencies or a network of nonprofits.

Additionally, the Foundation seeks to promote equity for underserved populations by:

• Funding capacity building or capital projects for organizations directly building vibrant communities.
• Prioritizing organizations with an annual budget over $1 million and a proven track record of success.
• Supporting projects linked to long-term planning or transformative growth phases.
