We are thrilled to share that Riis was recently named one of 22 frontline nonprofits selected to receive a grant from The Newest New Yorkers Fund. The Fund, a consortium of philanthropies and corporations led by The New York Community Trust and Robin Hood, was established to address the complex needs of new arrivals, promote their stability, and support their long-term integration.
