Victoria Foundation Awards $12.8 Million in Grants
2024 was an impactful year for Victoria Foundation as it not only celebrated its 100th anniversary, but it also awarded $12.8 million in grants to organizations aligned with the Foundation's mission of empowering Black and Brown residents and other marginalized communities in Newark.
The grants support Newark-based nonprofits as part of the Thriving Neighborhoods Initiative, Victoria Foundation's long-term commitment to building power and generational well-being at the neighborhood level by focusing on the three neighborhoods of Fairmount Heights, Lower Broadway, and Upper Clinton Hill.
"These funds ensure that our grantees continue to provide quality programs and support to meet the needs of Newark families," said Victoria Foundation Executive Officer Craig Drinkard. "We look forward to 2025 and our continued partnership in all the important work."
