Donor Name: The Keith Haring Foundation
State: New York
City: New York City

Details:
The Keith Haring Foundation funds sustainable initiatives that meet its mandate, and that provide proof of need and exemplary performance. The Foundation will not consider requests for funding that can otherwise be covered by federal, state, or city sources.
Areas of Focus
- Youth: The Keith Haring Foundation will consider funding requests concentrating on New York City’s highest-risk youth and adolescents, with the aim of helping them to become self-sufficient adults. Programs that provide long-term support and mentoring to vulnerable youth are particularly invited to apply. Preference will be given to programs that are inadequately supported by public funds.
- HIV/AIDS: The Keith Haring Foundation will consider funding requests that assist New Yorkers infected with HIV or at high risk of becoming infected. Priority will be given to serving the populations most vulnerable to HIV-infection and its consequences. Preference will be given to programs inadequately supported by public funds.
- Art and Culture: The Keith Haring Foundation will consider funding requests from institutions that provide educational and cultural enrichment. Applicants should reflect upon the breadth of their programming and public outreach as it relates to Haring’s legacy of social activism and cultural contribution, and to the historical context of his creative and philanthropic vision. Priority will be given to programs that address a critical need not covered by other funding sources.
Eligibility Criteria
- Eligible applicants must be certified 501(c) 3 non-profit organizations based in the United States, and serve missions related to our philanthropic areas of Youth, HIV/AIDs and Arts & Culture. Please keep in mind that funding is concentrated on New York City-based initiatives.
