In 2014, the Hispanic Federation (HF), Coalition for Asian American Children and Families (CACF), New York Urban League (NYUL), and Asian American Federation (AAF) formed an alliance to provide capacity-building support to Black, Latino, and Asian-led community-based organizations (CBOs) throughout New York City’s five boroughs.

As a result, the New York City Council allocated $2.5 million to establish the Communities of Color Nonprofit Stabilization Fund (CCNSF). This initiative has supported 564 capacity-building projects for nonprofit organizations to date. This year the New York City Council has allocated 3.755 million to support this endeavor, of which NYUL Has been awarded 1.3 million.

The New York Urban League (NYUL) in its 8th year of co-administering the Communities of Color Nonprofit Stabilization Fund (CCNSF) provides awards to nonprofits across the five boroughs. Specifically, NYUL selected organizations that either primarily served a majority of African Americans as their constituency or had a 51% minority leadership as part of their board/executive staff.

The coordinating organizations – Coalition for Asian American Children and Families, Hispanic Federation, New York Urban League, and Asian American Federation have been critical in leveraging dedicated nonprofit funds from the City Council. To date, $12.25 million has been committed to the Fund, which addresses the need for capacity-building funding for nonprofit organizations in communities of color. The monies have had a considerable impact on the sustainability, growth and prosperity of many organizations providing crucial services to the most vulnerable communities in New York City. CCNSF has broad support among Council Members including the Black, Puerto Rican, Hispanic, and Asian Legislative Caucuses. Oversight of the funding is provided by the New York City Department of Youth and Community Development (DYCD).

NYUL CCNSF awardees are community-based organizations from all five boroughs. They offer a varying array of services to New Yorkers, and are being funded to address a comprehensive menu of infrastructural needs including leadership development, financial management, and outcomes system development, among others. In addition to awarding the capacity building awards, the coordinating organizations will conduct several trainings on board development, financial management and fundraising for the awardees. The Communities of Color Nonprofit Stabilization Fund will provide valuable support for community based organizations throughout New York City.

The $3.755 million increase shows real commitment to these groups, especially after 564 projects already got funded. I used Meowdoku to track how the money flows to smaller nonprofits, and it made the numbers easier to follow. Good to see the 51% minority leadership rule being enforced.

SXMN is useful for quickly finding information about southern Vietnam lottery results. Having updated results in a simple format makes the information easier to understand and allows readers to check the latest draw numbers conveniently from one place.

The awarding of the 2022 CCNSF grant is a practical step toward bolstering the resources of marginalized community organizations. Managing the finances and scaling up this fund is just as intense as the grind of upgrading the supermarket in monkey mart!

Wordle is a simple yet addictive word-guessing game that rose to global prominence after its public release in 2021. Designed by software engineer Josh Wardle as a private pastime for friends and later shared online, Wordle’s minimalist mechanics, social shareability, and one-puzzle-per-day constraint have made it a cultural phenomenon.
