NYC is US

This December we aim to raise $200,000 that will bring about positive change in our communities. A new year means time for resolutions and this year, we’ve got some big ones!

We want to:

- Provide young people with spaces to grow

- Increase access to mental health care

- Expand early childhood education

- Bolster community-based arts

- Keep tenants in their homes and avoid homelessness

- And so much more!

And to do all this, we need your support!

Please consider making a gift this December to help us make these resolutions a reality.

About University Settlement

University Settlement partners with 40,000 New Yorkers on the Lower East Side and in Brooklyn every year to build on their strengths as they achieve healthy, stable, and remarkable lives. For 135 years, we’ve collaborated with our communities to pioneer highly effective programs that fight poverty and systemic inequality. Established in 1886 as the first Settlement House in the United States, we bring the values of that movement into the 21st century by meeting New Yorkers where they live, listening to their perspectives, recognizing their excellence, understanding them as complete individuals, and creating space for them to organize. Joining together with our neighbors to advocate for justice and equality, we help build community strength.
