Has been created
By civic and community groups to inform New Yorkers about the Atlantic Yards project and enable them to ask the decision-makers only to approve a plan that works for Brooklyn.
Our mission:
We help people who want to make a
difference.
We believe that individuals are the driving force behind charitable giving. Our
mission is to make it possible for anyone, anywhere, to raise more money than
they would have thought possible for the causes they care about. Our ambition is
to create the world's most user-friendly fundraising tools and to host a diverse
and lively online community where donors, fundraisers and beneficiaries can
support, learn from and communicate with each other in their own ambition to
support their causes.
Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn
About Us
DEVELOP DON'T DESTROY BROOKLYN leads a broad-based community coalition fighting for development that will unite our communities instead of dividing and destroying them. DDDB is opposed to Forest City Ratner's 8.8 million square foot development proposal for an arena and 16 high-rises in Prospect Heights and Park Slope, Brooklyn. The $3.5 billion project would use at least $1.6 billion in public money and would abuse the state's power of eminent domain–taking private property from one owner to give to a private entity for a private use, instead of a public use.
The National Coalition for Homeless Veterans
Mission:
The National Coalition for Homeless Veterans (NCHV) will end homelessness among veterans by shaping public policy, promoting collaboration, and building the capacity of service providers.
Mission Statement
To help people help themselves through the practical application of knowledge
and resources to improve their quality of life and that of future generations

History
Associated Black Charities is a not-for-profit federation of health and human service agencies. It was founded in 1982 to assist in the support, financially and otherwise, of organizations which promote the social welfare and health of the African American community of New York City and to advocate for the equitable distribution of the philanthropic dollars generated annually in New York City. Associated Black Charities' mission is to promote the delivery of quality health and human services to African Americans through a system of voluntary community-based organizations

Our Mission
United Way of New York City creates and supports strategic initiatives that
address the root causes of critical human care problems in order to achieve
measurable improvement in the lives of the city's most vulnerable residents and
communities. Throughout our work, we partner with neighborhood agencies,
government, business, foundations, volunteers and others so that collectively we
can achieve more than any one organization working alone.
