Guardians

Mission

Our Mission: To help men with immediate financial needs live with hope and dignity.

Profile

The Guardians provide financial assistance to help men with limited resources obtain various services not covered by other agencies in the Manhattan community. For men that qualify, vital services such as car repairs, dental work, or identification recovery can be obtained to help them live self-sufficiently, with hope, and with dignity. 

83 grants totaling $37,748 were awarded during 2022. Last year more dollars were given to men in need since The Guardians were established. Plus, the total grants given since 2014 exceeded $220,000! Your generous donations make a difference!

The Guardians provide grants up to $1,000. Past grants include buying tires so a man can get to his job or providing a bed for an elderly man. A list of all the approved grants can be found on the Guardian web site Home page. Guardian members are kept informed of grants provided, fundraising progress, and upcoming events by monthly email notifications and website announcements.
