Mission and Program Overview

Mission

The corporation is formed for the charitable purpose of offering direct financial support to the poor and needy black people living in the 14605 zip code neighborhood in Rochester, New York to assist them with adequate housing, employment, schooling and business start-ups.

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
There are innumerable disparities in the city of Rochester between those that live in the largely non-white communities and those that live in the largely white communities. The Black Community Focus Fund, Inc. is about "getting to zero" with the disparities in the black community. Historically racism has left Black Rochesterians short of many opportunities in housing, education, employment, business, and available support of neighborhood services. The Corporation's charitable purpose is to focus our equity work on the black families who live in the 14605 zip code area of the city of Rochester. The Corporation will focus on improving housing, education, employment, business startups, and neighborhood support services. Through measurable goals, the Corporation will offer access and support to this community. We will be able to assess these measurable goals in order to rate our progress.$0$0
