Community

Every year, NYU's workplace charitable giving program (called the Community Fund) supports local nonprofits and programs such as the Grace Opportunity (GO) Project, which provides academic support to at-risk public school students from the Lower East Side area.

NYU Government Affairs links elected officials (like Council Member Fernando Cabrera, left) to initiatives like the Smiling Face, Going Places van, which has brought free oral health preventative care and educational programs to over 20,000 NYC kids since 2000. NYU's College of Dentistry offers free exams, workshops, health fairs, and other resources to NYC parents and children year-round.
