Established in 1911 by Adolph S. Ochs, publisher of The New York Times, The New York Times Neediest Cases Fund has raised $288 million since its inception. The Fund’s 105th annual campaign runs from Nov. 13, 2016 through Feb. 3, 2017. Each profile illustrates the stories of those who benefited from the fund and shows the difference that even a modest amount of money can make. The money is distributed to individuals through the fund’s eight participating organizations, often in small amounts targeted to specific needs.
Donations will be collected through Feb. 10.
The New York Times Company underwrites all administrative costs incurred by the fund. The Neediest Cases Fund invests unrestricted contributions of $100,000 or more from trusts and estates in an endowment; the income will go into the next year’s campaign.
