CITIZENS COMMITTEE FOR NEW YORK CITY 2020 Annual Report

CitizensNYC We are ALL IN for New York City #Allin4NYC

30 East 125th Street, #189 | 212 989 0909 | citizensnyc.org New York, NY 10035 A LETTER FROM OUR CEO

On March 16, 2020 I had the profound privilege of 0 taking on the role of CEO at CitizensNYC. In a year like no other I’ve seen how the citizens of this city continue to fill in the gaps, often where federal and state institutions fall short. We are a village of small business owners, activists, artists, and community gatekeepers improving New York City neighborhoods, and in this moment of crisis we believe we as a city must trust grassroots leaders, support them, and give them the right platforms to thrive. 2 Think about what access to food and water— necessities that many of us take for granted, even in a pandemic—looks like in a community that was already struggling before COVID-19 invaded our neighborhoods. In response, CitizensNYC quickly mobilized its resources to focus on the immediate needs of struggling New Yorkers. We established two unrestricted grant programs focusing on the city’s hardest-hit communities, with an emphasis on keeping 0 struggling businesses afloat, and meeting urgent community needs such as access to food, water, and financial resources.

As one of the nation’s oldest micro-funding organizations, CitizensNYC provides support to community leaders on the front lines of change in their own neighborhoods. But we’re so much more than grantmakers. Most importantly, we are a

communications platform for those whose voices are 2 often drowned out—or who never got a chance to speak at all. We are #Allin4NYC.

Dr. Rahsaan Harris Chief Executive Officer OUR MISSION C

To help New Yorkers—

especially those in low- Y income areas—come together and improve the

quality of life in their N neighborhoods. 4 BLACK LIVES MATTER

The overwhelming majority of New York City n residents believe in the importance of addressing the dire consequences of systemic i racism in this country. l At CitizensNYC, we remain deeply committed

to a more equitable New York City. We are l unwavering in our mission to empower grassroots leaders to move their ideas into

action, thereby creating new pathways and

opportunities for a better future. We also

support the activists and change agents who A

are seeking justice for Black and Brown people in this country. # BOARD OF DIRECTORS

For over 45 years, we have been working to improve New York City. Our origin story is rooted in the spirit of bipartisanship.

In the 1970s, when New York City was facing massive cutbacks and citywide poverty during one of its worst financial crises in history, U.S. Senator Jacob Javits and Newsweek Editor-in-Chief Osborn Elliott gave New Yorkers a tangible way to improve their neighborhoods and build community.

In 1975, Elliott placed an ad in The New York Times, calling for “10,000 ‘greedy, heartless’ New Yorkers to work for 5 years. For free.” More than 10,000 responded, pitching in as city services were being slashed. So began nearly five decades of reinventing New York City neighborhoods through resident-led initiative and engagement.

Neighbors have started block associations to clean up and beautify their communities. They’ve built organic gardens, providing critical sources of food in areas without access to fresh fruits and vegetables and teaching their families about science and nutrition at the same time. We’ve seen groups come together to organize after-school programs, adult education classes, theater workshops to raise awareness about bullying and violence, and so, so much more.

Today, this spirit of local engagement still drives our work. In 2020, our grantmaking priorities focus on investing in communities hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic, which is particularly ravaging in communities of color in our city. 2020 BY THE NUMBERS We are #Allin4NYC

2020 Neighborhood Business Grant recipient Silom Thai 2020 All In Neighborhood Grant recipient Together We Can GET TO KNOW A FEW OF OUR GRANTEE PARTNERS WHO ARE DOING T HE WORK TO REBUILD OUR C ITY

Silom Thai 2020 Neighborhood Business Grant winner Chelsea, Manhattan Silom Thai is a family owned local Thai restaurant beloved by regulars from its neighborhood. As active members of the community, the owners have taken the initiative to offer free meals to healthcare workers who are fighting to keep the community healthy and safe. The immigrant-owned restaurant has seen a steep decrease in sales, rendering their hopes of staying in business uncertain without a grant.

South Queens Women's March 2020 All In Neighborhood Grant winner Richmond Hill, Queens South Queens Women's March is organizing a period drive to collect and distribute feminine hygiene products (FHP) to community members in vulnerable populations including those that are immune-compromised, have pre-existing conditions, or are undocumented. The group is also supporting local small businesses by ordering hot meals and delivering them to residents in need.

Harlem Masters Barbershop 2020 Neighborhood Business Grant winner Harlem, Manhattan "Due to covid we had to make modifications to the shop to keep everyone safe as well as provide PPE to employees and customers. With this funding, we would like to rehire the maintenance and cleaning guys to keep everything disinfected throughout the day." GET TO KNOW A FEW OF OUR GRANTEE PARTNERS WHO ARE DOING T HE WORK TO REBUILD OUR C ITY

Enoch's Bikes 2020 Neighborhood Business Grant winner Chelsea, Manhattan “Because we were was deemed an essential business, we were able to remain open. Many locals seeking alternate forms of transportation (while public transportation was limited) came in to buy new bikes or to repair/overhaul old bikes. For over 35 years, Enoch's Bike Shop has provided service and repairs. We are the true definition of a small business in New York City.”

Creative Stage 2020 Neighborhood Business Grant winner Harlem, Manhattan Grant funding allowed us to adapt to the new exclusively online format, and helped cover the deficit created when we were forced to rapidly adapt our curricula and train our team. It also allowed us to train and re-employ our team of teaching artists for online classes.

400 Bainbridge Block Association 2020 All In Neighborhood Grant winner Bedford–Stuyvesant, Brooklyn 400 Bainbridge Block Association is addressing food security issues caused by COVID-19 through promoting urban agriculture via backyard gardens and fire escape farms. The group is generating social and environmental benefits for the community by bringing greenspaces to the city, cooling the air, creating more oxygen, and sequestering carbon dioxide. s r o GRANT WINNERS b
