HEROES BREAKFAST We hosted our 33rd Annual Heroes Breakfast to honor three of our community partners — Avenues for Justice, DREAM, and Future Now — through the stories of three remarkable New Yorkers: Elsie Flores, Zouberou Sayibou, and Jasmine Mille. These impressive individuals stand as reminders that one’s starting point in life should not define where you end up. That’s why we fund, support, and connect community organizations that give every New Yorker a fair shot at permanently escaping from poverty.

ANNUAL BENEFIT We returned to our usual spring slot to host our annual Benefit at the Javits Center on Monday, May 9, 2022. Guests heard comedy from John Mulaney, musical performances from Charlie Puth and John Legend, and stories from community members like Courtney and Malik, as well as other incredible individuals who contributed to an epic evening. That night, Robin Hood raised a total of $126 million in the fight against poverty in New York City. In partnership with the Mayor’s Fund to Advance New York City, we launched our signature Child Care Quality & Innovation Initiative for NYC — a fund of private and public dollars to increase the quality, access, and affordability of child care city-wide.
INVESTORS CONFERENCE Robin Hood was back in person for the 10th Annual J.P. Morgan x Robin Hood Investors Conference. We brought together leaders — including David Einhorn, Joyce Meng, William Heard, and Paul Tudor Jones II — representing the business, private funder investment, academic, and policy sectors (among others) to share actionable market insights and network over lunch. We look forward to being back at Spring Studios in October of 2023.
