Supporting the Bronx Community

The Bronx has come a long way in the last few decades. From previously being known for its high poverty and crime rates to a thriving borough home to 1,438,159 inhabitants, much have been done to bring this diverse, lively place to its full potential. Yet in spite of all the efforts being made in order to achieve this, our children still carry the stigma from this ghastly past and continue to be neglected in many areas that are essential to their optimal development.

Founded by Dr. Denise Nunez, the primary goal of Nino De La Caridad Foundation is to extend a helping hand to children of our Bronx Community. The foundation aims to provide a secure environment in which children are able to enhance their social skills as well as their academics. It is our mission to provide children with the skills and knowledge they need to lead a healthy and fulfilling future.

To learn more about our borough and to stay updated on the improvements and news regarding the Bronx, visit our Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. website at: http://bronxboropres.nyc.gov

Our interns are predominantly from Fordham University,
Monroe College, and Hostos Community College.
Each of our programs provides internship and volunteering opportunities.

Nino de la Caridad Foundation Team

Our team focuses on ensuring and providing those in need with the resources and opportunities necessary to create an equitable and just future for children, families, and the communities they reside in.

With passion and purpose, we rally hearts, minds, and spirits to participate in constructing a better tomorrow for everyone to live in. Specifically, we aim to assist the future of our community – the children – by helping them leading healthy lifestyles and succeeding academically. In our short existence, we have been able to change the lives of many and we plan on changing many more.
