JOIN US AS WE KICK OFF OUR 2025 CAMPAIGN DECADES STRONG!

For 54 years, Carter Burden Network (CBN) has championed older New Yorkers with bold programs, a vibrant community, and unwavering care and commitment. From wraparound supports and innovative services to creative arts and daily nutritious meals, and health and wellness workshops, our diverse programming not only uplifts and empowers older adults every day, but it is saving and changing lives.

Now, we are launching our most dynamic and demanding fundraising campaign yet.

As New York City, and our country, are facing the largest cuts to Medicaid and SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Program) that we have ever seen, we need your help to meet this moment and ensure that older New Yorkers are not left behind. These cuts will have a significant impact on millions of older Americans, including the 6,000 NYC older adults we serve, and the anticipated increase in demand we will face. Without these supports and services, they will face food and housing insecurity, financial instability, and many other challenges. 

Throughout every decade, we have overcome obstacles with resilience and heart—and now will be no different. These are challenging times and we need you with us so that we can continue to be Decades Strong for the growing population of older New Yorkers we serve.

All contributions to the 2025 Fundraising Campaign are fully tax-deductible.
