Medical Center Neighborhood Fund 31st Annual Awardees’ Reception

The 31st Annual Awardees’ Reception of the Medical Center Neighborhood Fund was held on Tuesday, November 27. Grants were awarded to 46 local nonprofit organizations to support their work in the Washington Heights and Inwood community. For 31 years, the Neighborhood Fund has supported organizations in their efforts to provide different cultural, recreational, and social services to local residents. The fund is supported by faculty and staff from Columbia University Irving Medical Center, NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, and New York State Psychiatric Institute as part of our long-standing commitment to serving our community. One hundred percent of the donations received are awarded each year and the program is administered by staff volunteers who review requests for funds and perform yearly site visits to monitor progress. You can learn more about the Neighborhood Fund by visiting our website: https://www.gca.cumc.columbia.edu/medical-center-neighborhood-fund
