The Children’s Aid Associates Council is an organized group of professionals who lend their time, expertise, and passion to our mission: ensuring that every child has the opportunity to learn, grow, and lead.

The Associates Council offers a fun and fulfilling way to have a direct impact on the lives of the children, while providing members with opportunities to network, develop leadership skills, and begin a lifetime of philanthropic involvement.

Direct action for change

Comprised of diverse, driven individuals from a variety of professions and sectors, Associates Council members contribute individually and as a group to the work of Children’s Aid through fundraising, volunteer activities, and pro bono consulting.

Associates Council members can promote Children’s Aid as a matching gift partner at their companies, organize a New York marathon team, or leverage business relationships in support of Children’s Aid. Associates Council members are part of our powerhouse of solutions for children and, as such, are asked to contribute $2,500 annually — through personal commitment, support of their networks, or a combination of both.

Participation on the Associates Council does not require an undue amount of time but does require commitment — in both dollars and deeds — to helping New York’s children, youth, and families succeed.

NOTE: The Associates Council is currently on hiatus as we restructure the format of this group. If you are interested in joining our future recruitment list, please contact us at giving@ChildrensAidNYC.org.
