FundaveNYC (pronounced FUND-A-VEH NYC) aims to accelerate asylum seekers' and immigrants’ transition into thriving New York City residents. We strive to empower and advocate for our community by paving the way, creating solutions, and building connections. We achieve this through four focus areas:
Fundavenyc was established in 2021. Our team is made up of mostly immigrants, many Venezuelans or South Americans who risked their lives to escape persecution. The intimate, first-hand understanding of our community's needs sets us apart in providing effective short-term assistance and building long-term solutions. Our focus on relationship-building creates a strong organization that can contribute significantly to resolving the struggles our city faces.
Our Core Values are:
We keep empathy and kindness at the forefront with each individual we come into contact with. We also equip our team with the technical and power skills necessary to create a positive impact.
We are committed to supporting holistic well-being for anyone in need across the five boroughs and aim to become the top provider of HPD-certified Housing Ambassadors.
