Today is DAF Day. 🧡

If you have a donor-advised fund, today is a good day to think about what you want your giving to make possible.

All across New York City, women and gender-expansive leaders are doing what they’ve always done: caring for their communities and finding ways forward. The New York Women’s Foundation has spent nearly 40 years believing in them and investing in what they know is possible.

Today, we hope you’ll join us.

Make a gift from your DAF and put your generosity behind the New Yorkers already shaping what comes next.

Jahajee: Indo-Caribbeans for Gender Justice and The New York Women's Foundation share a vision of a world free from violence for women, girls, and gender-expansive people.

This video, featured during the Kering Foundation's 2026 Caring for Women Dinner, where The Foundation was named a beneficiary, spotlights Jahajee’s work as a healing and political home for Indo-Caribbeans impacted by gender-based violence. Jahajee organizes community members to speak out, take action, and use their voices to make lasting change.

We are honored to support community partners like Jahajee and the vital work they are leading.

With support from The Foundation through The Fund for girls and young women of color, CEP strengthens trans and gender-expansive leadership. In 2025, CEP and its coalition partners helped secure $13.725 million in the FY26 NYC Council Budget to expand the Trans Equity Programs Initiative.
