"Twice as Nice"

 The Staten Island Foundation awards $25,000 Matching Grant

The Staten Island Foundation, who has been a lead supporter of Vision for Staten Island and our community visioning initiative, and has recently awarded us with a $25,000 matching grant. This means that they will match - dollar for dollar - all funds we can raise from the community, including individuals, businesses, corporations and other foundations.

This is a great opportunity for us to double our funding; but we need your help!

DONATE today! Complete and return the donation card with your contribution and the Staten Island Foundation will make it "Twice as Nice."

Reality Check Results Are In!

During the Reality Check Workshops, topical experts worked together in small groups to examine a particular topic in-depth. During the two-hour workshops they worked with a trained facilitator to review the ideas presented by the community during this past winter's Idea Gathering Sessions, discussed critical questions raised by the Vision for Staten Island Steering Committee, and proposed implementation recommendations. These recommendations will be forwarded to the Topical Work Groups who will develop goals, strategies and steps to accomplish the goals.
