About us
The mission of the NYUL is to enable African Americans and other underserved ethnic communities to secure a first class education, economic self reliance, and equal respect of their civil rights through programs, services and advocacy in our highly diversified city. Today’s economic climate has highlighted the importance of the work of the New York Urban League. Our offices continue to fill with residents seeking our services in times of crisis. For more than 90 years, New York Urban League has advocated on behalf of underserved New Yorkers to ensure equal opportunities in education, employment and civil rights. With a presence in all five boroughs of New York, the League seeks to eliminate those barriers that hinder people from improving their social and economic conditions. Since 1971, NYUL has provided more than $20M in scholarship funds to help college hopefuls pursue higher education. New York Urban League is one of 98 local affiliates of the National Urban League, a historic civil rights organization dedicated to economic empowerment in order to elevate the standard of living in historically underserved urban communities.

The Communities of Color Nonprofit Stabilization Fund (CCNSF) awards NYC-based nonprofit organizations with capacity-building funding to improve and expand their operations and programs. We are pleased to spotlight a few of this year’s #NewYorkUrbanLeague grant awardees over the next few weeks! Since its establishment in 2010, the 67th Precinct Clergy Council, “The GodSquad” has been a beacon of resilience and determination, dedicated to healing and empowering Brooklyn communities impacted by gun violence. Their holistic, faith-based approach has been instrumental in their service to the community. The CCNSF grant has further fueled their determination, allowing the Council to review and enhance its strategic and organizational development strategies, thereby improving its operations and service to the community. The upcoming application period for the 2025 Communities of Color Nonprofit Stabilization Fund grant program presents a significant opportunity for growth and development for New York City-based nonprofits.

At the #NewYorkUrbanLeague, we like to say, “Once an Urban Leaguer, Always an Urban Leaguer.” So, it gives us great pleasure to introduce the next member of our 2024 TCS New York City Marathon charity run team, an Urban Leaguer from the southwest, Jamel Riley! Jamel, also known as Mel, likes reading, listening to podcasts, traveling, mentoring youth, fellowship with friends, and working out. Mel, who used to run cross-country in high school, wanted a physical and mental challenge. He’s running in his first-ever marathon, which he expects will be one of the most challenging things he’s done to date. Mel supports the New York Urban League to bring awareness to the constant change and progression of minorities, specifically blacks, that the organization has represented for many years. Thank you, Mel, for choosing #NYUL! We look forward to your journey to race day and appreciate you spreading the word about the New York Urban League along the way! Please support Jamel Riley and #TeamNYUL as they run 26.2 miles to raise awareness and critical funding for #NYUL programming.
