Our Impact
The NYAC Athlete’s Fund is the only 501(c)(3) charity aligned with the New York Athletic Club and is dedicated to serving under-privileged inner-city youth and supporting NYAC athletes. Established in 1989, the Fund plays a vital role in helping elite athletes pursue their Olympic dreams by providing support during training periods, while also partnering with organizations that use sport to support disadvantaged youth in the inner-city. Through independent stewardship, community partnerships, and sustained fund-raising efforts, the Athlete’s Fund ensures that access to sport remains at the heart of its mission, thereby providing the opportunity for individuals of talent to aspire to excellence.
