Each year, we pool our contributions to award grants to three nonprofit organizations making a difference right here in Westchester. What sets PYP apart from other grant-funding organizations is our unique model: members pitch one another on causes they’re passionate about, giving everyone a voice in where the money goes. Membership is by nomination only. Annual dues are $1,250 per member (members may always choose to give more). Of that amount, $1,100 goes directly into the grant pool and is awarded to local nonprofits, with members collectively deciding how the funds are divided. The remaining $150 goes toward administrative costs for the organization (that is entirely volunteer-run).
