The Four Pillars of Robin Hood

100% CHARITY

Robin Hood’s Board of Directors underwrites all operating costs, so 100 percent of your donation goes directly to fighting poverty.

RIGOROUS METRICS

Robin Hood evaluates all grants through an exacting process to determine how much each dollar lifts the well-being of struggling New Yorkers.

ACCOUNTABILITY

We fund the most effective programs. If successful, we help them expand; if they stumble, we help them improve; if problems persist, we end support.

PARTNERSHIP

More than money, we offer grantees business expertise, leadership training, and best practices to bolster their ability to serve their communities.
