Let’s build something together

Bank of America partners with nonprofit organizations in New York City’s five boroughs and Westchester County to address the pressing needs of the community. To help New Yorkers in need, we support hunger relief agencies that provide millions of meals and other essential items and work with partners addressing the inequities of access to healthcare. To advance economic security for our most vulnerable and diverse neighbors we support skill-building programs through local colleges and nonprofit organizations that lead to better job opportunities. And, we continue to work with partners helping small and minority-led businesses who are facing enormous challenges. As New Yorkers, we are a resilient community because we pull for each other, together.
