The New Yankees Stadium Community Benefits Fund's mission is to enhance the quality of life in the Bronx by addressing civic, socioeconomic, and/or educational needs while providing opportunities in recreation, social arts, health, and culture.
The grant program aims to support a wide range of initiatives within Bronx County that align with the fund's broad goals. Specific areas of interest include education, health, culture/arts, and recreation. The program seeks to fund projects that stimulate community interest in sports, music, the arts, theater, and design, alongside providing assistance and supportive services for local residents. These efforts are geared towards benefitting the community without the aim of financial gain for the fund's members, directors, or officers, in line with not-for-profit and IRS regulations.
