Who We Are
History |
Eliza Winans Rossman founded Allinbklyn in 2014. During the first year, 41 women shared their time, talent and resources, and together they granted $201,000 to 13 Brooklyn nonprofits, just months after their first meeting.
Since then, the women of Allinbklyn, along with a growing number of non-member supporters, have made more than three million dollars in grants to over 70 Brooklyn nonprofits, many of which have received multi-year grants.
Mission
Allinbklyn is a women’s giving circle committed to improving lives and strengthening communities in Brooklyn.
Values
We believe that women have the power to create transformative change when they come together with shared purpose and collective resources.
We believe that true philanthropy extends beyond financial giving to include advocacy, partnership, and sustained community engagement with the organizations we support.
We believe that Brooklyn's strength lies in its diversity and our giving supports traditionally underrepresented communities and underfunded initiatives.
We believe that trust-based philanthropy and democratic decision-making create more meaningful impact than top-down approaches to charitable giving.
We believe that local investment matters—by giving where we live, we deepen our connection to Brooklyn while strengthening the communities we call home.
We believe that our grantee partners are the experts in their communities, and our role is to provide flexible support that amplifies their existing strengths and vision.
We believe that staying informed and responsive to emerging needs allows us to be agile partners in addressing Brooklyn's evolving challenges, from systemic inequities to immediate crises.
