Fundraising Prizes | Fundraising Tips | Take the $150 Challenge | Be a Virtual Volunteer

Every dollar donated to New York Cares amounts to $6 in service to the community. That's the power of volunteering.

New York Cares Day is a volunteer-a-thon. Like a walk-a-thon, you ask family, friends, and co-workers to donate in honor of your volunteer service. If each participant raises $150, New York Cares can deliver $6.3 million worth of critical services to the community.

The money you raise will help New York Cares volunteers continue to make a difference all year long for 400,000 struggling New Yorkers.

Even if you can't attend the event, you can make a big impact by fundraising for the Virtual Volunteer team or making a donation. Learn more about how we put donations to work. Read our fundraising tips for inspiration, and check out our prizes for top fundraisers.
