Event
Join Brooklyn Org for a conversation on how ongoing federal policy changes are impacting the state of the financial markets, the lives of our neighbors across the borough, and how we are standing in the gap for our communities.
This financial market and community update will feature presentations from Brooklyn Org’s external investment advisor Pathstone as well as leaders of Fort Greene Park Conservancy and Weeksville Heritage Center.
About:
Brooklyn Org’s Brooklyn Backs Brooklyn campaign aims to raise $5 million for Brooklyn over the next year, in order to increase our grantmaking to local communities by 25%—support that aims to address urgent needs, advance racial justice, and ensure no Brooklynite is left behind. We are meeting the moment with urgency, intention, and care.
