Where the money comes from, and where it goes.

We ask parents for money, so we owe you a straight answer about it. Here’s how this is structured, funded, and overseen — and what your ten dollars actually buys.

How we’re structured.

  • A sponsored project

    NYUC is a sponsored project of the Fund for the City of New York, a 501(c)(3) public charity. FCNY holds the charitable status, receives the funds, issues the receipts, and provides fiscal and legal oversight.

  • What that means for your gift

    Donations and dues are tax-deductible, and your receipt comes from the Fund for the City of New York rather than from us. Where the money ends up doesn’t change.

  • Parent-funded on purpose

    Dues and individual donations are the core of the budget, on purpose. A group funded by the people it represents can pick fights a grant-funded one can’t.

Legal and tax details

New Yorkers United for Child Care is a sponsored project of the Fund for the City of New York, a 501(c)(3) public charity. EIN 13-2612524.

What it pays for.

  • Child care at every in-person meeting — the line item that makes it possible for parents to be there at all.
  • Organizers who help members run drives and neighborhood teams.
  • The physical stuff: signs, tables, printing, buses to Albany on budget days.
  • Research and rapid response, so we can put a real number in front of a legislator the same day.
