Affordable Housing
New York Life believes affordable housing represents the greatest opportunity to deploy capital at a large scale and directly improves financial well-being.
Small Business
Small business success is directly tied to individual employment opportunities and economic stability.
Community Development
Support for community services that enhance health and wellness, childcare, education, financial literacy, and credit building will help accelerate economic empowerment.
The New York Life Foundation views the Renter Wealth Creation Fund as a pivotal instrument for empowering communities with limited wealth accumulation opportunities.
