Sadie Nash Leadership Project was founded in 2001 to promote leadership and activism among young women. The program is designed to strengthen, empower, and equip young women as agents for change in their lives and in the world. We offer an award-winning array of programming to young women in all 5 boroughs of NYC and in Newark, New Jersey.
The Greys have been a fixture, a mainstay, and a great benefactor to the city of New York and its children since it began in 1881. The Greys are open to children ages 7-16, boys and girls, from all walks of life, including children from diverse backgrounds and financial needs from all over the city. Over the course of 143 years, the Greys have served nearly 5,500 of New York City's children, fostering and instilling integrity, civility, character, confidence, social skills, knowledge of history, and leadership. Graduates of the Greys include New York Governor and Vice President Nelson Rockefeller, New York Governor Averell Harriman, Mayor John Lindsay, Robert Lovett, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., celebrated actor and originator of Navy Seal program, author Louis Auchincloss, and many other accomplished and prominent individuals. Perhaps even more importantly, the Greys’ programs have helped to mold generations of decent and productive citizens, who are always the mainstay of a city’s civilization.
