A Message From Our Board Co-Chairs

Dear Friends in Brooklyn,

In this season of holidays, we write to share our gratitude on behalf of the entire team at Brooklyn Org.

As we enter a new period of need and opportunity, direct action supporting Brooklyn communities will be more critical than ever.

The earlier letter from our CEO Dr. Jocelynne Rainey describes so well the myriad ways that changemakers across Brooklyn—our community leaders, the organizations we back, our many stakeholders—are meeting this extraordinary moment.

Dr. Rainey’s letter also demonstrates what it means to “Show Brooklyn Some Love.”

Our mission at Brooklyn Org is to spark change and foster the hard daily work of building a better world. That doesn’t happen without your financial support.

So, we thank each of you for your care and your connection. And at the same time, we have one last year-end ask: if you could find a way to dig even deeper and include BKO in your year-end giving plans.

Please donate now and help us welcome Brooklyn into a strong and vibrant 2025!

In grateful partnership,
Nicole Gueron + Michael Gillespie
Co-Chairs, Board of Directors
Brooklyn Org
