Your help is urgently needed.

NYC closed Floyd Bennett Field, recognizing the vulnerable situation of migrant families housed on federal land. While this is an incredible victory, the families, other asylum seekers, and undocumented folks need our continued support as they navigate ongoing challenges to their stability and security.

As the situation evolves, so does the work of Floyd Bennett Field Neighbors and our partnership with them. Donations to the FBF Neighbors Fund will support local mutual aid efforts providing resources to our new neighbors.

This work is so important to us that we do not take a percentage of donations made to the FBF Neighbors Fund.

Any amount you can donate makes a difference.

Your donation through Brooklyn Donates is tax deductible.

Our History

Past community donations have made an incredible difference. We distributed $91,200 in grants in 2020. In 2021, we gave 5 grants to back-of-house restaurant employees who lost their jobs or who didn’t qualify for other forms of aid. More recently, we have focused on neighborhood street cleanups and on coat drives in partnership with CHiPS and FBF Neighbors.
