Immediately after 9/11, I created NYNonProfit to help local nonprofits that were affected financially and by reduced visibility, in the aftermath of recent tragic events.
I met with nonprofit organizations daily, it was a vetting process that could only happen eye to eye.
As the number of nonprofits I engaged with increased, I began to host NYNonProfit meetings which encouraged nonprofits, foundations and politicians to work together.
In 2008, I gave up active control to a 3rd party.
However, I had always anticipated re-engaging. I missed the connection to the community, to the people and to the wonderful work they and their organizations do.
So, I have brought it back as a brand new organization.
NYNonProfit is not connected to any legacy – it is a white board.
