Submit ReviewSince its founding in 2009, the Brooklyn Community Foundation has helped provide more than $90 million in grants to exclusively Brooklyn nonprofits. Which is important because even though Brooklyn is home to nearly 30 percent of the nonprofits in New York city, its share of philanthropic giving is only 7.6 percent. Jocelynne Rainey, the president and CEO of the BCF since November of 2021, is working to change that, while leaning in to issues around racial and economic justice. A lifelong Brooklynite, she joins us to talk about her background and upbringing, the work that the Brooklyn Community Foundation does and her own commitment to racial justice.
