The CNY Care Package Project is underway! Please help us reach our goal of collecting enough donations to create 1,000 care packages for local people in need.

Get involved by purchasing and donating personal care items (soap, shampoo, toothpaste, etc.) at Syracuse area @wegmans stores, via our Amazon wish list, or by making a monetary donation.

Businesses, schools and civic organizations are encouraged to host their own CNY Care Package Drive at their site to collect donations!

Last week, our Emerging Leaders United held their first ever “Good For CNY $10K Nonprofit Pitch” at the @eversonmuseum.

@auroraofcny, @blackgirlsdontgetlove, @blueprintfifteen, @elmcrestchildrenscenter, and @hopeprint took the stage to pitch their project to our five judges @jeffknauss, Kristin Mannion, @matthewjread, Kurt Bartenstein, and @derachio

We heard some exceptional ideas from all the nonprofits, but in the end, one was selected by the judges -- and the audience – as this year’s winner.

Congratulations to Hopeprint, Inc! Their winning idea, the Northside Cultural Arts District, will seek to give local youth the opportunity to develop their creative process through artmaking and enhance their neighborhoods with art installations.

Thank you to the nonprofit pitchers, judges, our sponsor @empowerfcu, and our anonymous donor for providing the $10K prize.
