Robin Hood, New York City’s premiere foundation dedicated to combating poverty in the city, has brought LIFT into its portfolio of grant recipients.

LIFT will receive a one-year, $100,000 grant as part of Robin Hood’s “Jobs and Economic Security” focus area to fund its program and operation in New York. LIFT-The Bronx will serve as a Single Stop center to provide free confidential benefits and financial counseling to neighborhood residents.

The Robin Hood grant provides significant resources for growth, enabling LIFT-The Bronx to hire a Program Manager to oversee operations and enabling the site to expand its services into new office space.  Both investments will greatly increase LIFT’s ability to meet the growing needs of low-income individuals and families in the Bronx community.
