What We Do

In Cayuga and Onondaga Counties, the Allyn Family Foundation works to create, grow, and attract businesses that are community-owned, or that create good jobs for nearby residents. We support residents in accessing economic opportunities and provide tools for personal and family financial stability.

The Allyn Family Foundation is committed to empowering neighborhood residents and community partners to transform their neighborhoods into safe, healthy, and vibrant places where families thrive. We engage in this work to ensure that each person has access to decent, stable and affordable housing, as well as community-based cultural experiences that build community.

In Cayuga and Onondaga Counties, the Allyn Family Foundation is providing leadership and support for diverse community coalitions who are focused on designing community-wide approaches to improving early childhood systems and supports for vulnerable families.

Along with many community partners, the Allyn Family Foundation is building a local movement to encourage and support young women and their partners to have complete information about all contraceptives and be able to choose the method that is right for them, without any cost or access barriers. We are strongly committed to reproductive justice, woman-centered care, and changing social norms to empower young women.
