Donate to Children's Aid

One of America's Oldest and Best-Respected Children's Charities

Children’s Aid depends on the generous donations of individuals, foundations and corporations to create and continue the web of integrated support services it provides to children and families throughout New York City.

How Your Donation Helps Children

$100 can buy a microscope for an after-school science program at one of our Community Schools.
$500 can send a disabled child to our Wagon Road “respite” camp for a 3-day weekend.
$1,000 can provide training for a teen “peer educator” to lead a workshop against drugs or violence.
Your donation – of any type or size – will mean more help for more children.

We're Proud of Our High Charity Ratings

The Children's Aid Society adheres to the Better Business Bureau of Metropolitan New York's Standards for Charity Accountability, and has been distinguished since 2001 by Charity Navigator as a 4 star charity for our fiscal health and respect for donor privacy.

Would you make a more generous gift if you could spread it over many months?

The Sustainers Program is an easy way to help hundreds of New York children every day, while spreading your donation over a specific period of time.

The Children's Aid Society is a New York corporation that is tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Federal Tax ID 13-5562191.
