| Description: |
The Charles Hayden Foundation makes contributions to institutions that serve children and youth ages 5 to 18 from Boston, New York City and Newark, NJ. Grants are also made to institutions that support youth activities outside these areas when a substantial majority of the youth served comes from within the Foundation's defined geographic catchment areas. Support is concentrated on youth development and education programs that present: (1) evidence of significant program impact on young people and (2) plans for making measurable progress toward well-defined goals in a specific time frame. |
