New York Age-Friendly Funders Network is a peer network of grantmakers who fund or are interested in the program area of healthy aging and services for older adults. Philanthropy New York members funding or interested in the area of older adult services and healthy aging in New York are invited to join the group's meetings.
Join the New York Age-Friendly Funders Network for its spring meeting. The Network’s aim is to advance members’ knowledge of: (1) current and emerging needs among older adults and the organizations that serve them and (2) opportunities and challenges in funding effective NYC area programs that are working to address these needs. The main focus of this particular meeting will be for foundations to share current funding priorities and updates. The special guest for the meeting will be Crystal Hudson, Chair of the City Council Committee on Aging. We hope to have a robust discussion of the City’s priorities and identify opportunities for collaboration.
