Association to Benefit Children is a nonprofit partner of NeighborShare, Inc. We partner with effective, trustworthy organizations on the ground working with families and individuals, like Association to Benefit Children. They identify one-time urgent needs that would otherwise go unmet and our donors meet those needs. Efficiency and trustworthiness are as essential to us and our donors as it is to you, so each nonprofit partner has to pass our initial vetting process as well as ongoing integrity checks. We are not only proud that Association to Benefit Children meets those high standards, but we are even prouder of the incredible work they do every day to support our neighbors.

Mission: Association to benefit children provides services to children and families in the new york metropolitan area. The organization was founded as a force to challenge and change the myriads of assaults to children, including but not limited to hunger, poverty, homelessness, physical and emotional abuse, abandonment, substandard housing, failing schools and substance abuse which endanger their welfare and undermine their future.
