Welcome to The Staten Island Foundation
The Staten Island Foundation is an independent, private foundation serving the borough of Staten Island, New York. We are interested in outcomes in the areas of education, health, arts and culture, and strengthening community capacity. The Foundation funds direct services, capacity building, and a limited number of capital projects.
As of spring 2010 we have revised our Grant Investment Guidelines as well as online applications and report forms. Please review Outcomes-based Approach and Defining Project Results.
