Citizens Committee for New York City

Citizens Committee for New York City "was founded in 1975 by Osborn Elliott and Jacob Javits to encourage ordinary New Yorkers to volunteer to fill the gaps left by the city's cutbacks during fiscal crisis. Today, this spirit of volunteerism and local engagement still drives our work."
