The NewYork-Presbyterian Queens foundation concentrates its giving on supporting its local hospital/medical practice network while also making modest, targeted grants to community organizations in Queens—especially in Flushing and surrounding neighborhoods. Beyond the single very large healthcare commitment, grantmaking favors cultural institutions, immigrant and ethnic service providers, community development projects, and neighborhood-based social services that bolster local health, access, and civic life.
A single hospital-network commitment dominates Newyork-presbyterianqueens’s recent giving: three grants to New York Queens Medicine & Surgery Pc totaled more than $300 million across 2023, 2024, and 2025. That pattern sets the tone for the funder’s profile. The foundation also makes smaller grants to Queens-based organizations that support community life around the hospital’s service area, including transit, culture, civic infrastructure, and neighborhood services. Recent support has gone to groups such as Downtown Flushing Transit Hub, Queens Botanical Garden Society, and Flushing Town Hall. Those awards suggest a local funder that pairs major institutional support with targeted neighborhood grants. The overall picture is highly concentrated in Queens and broader New York City, with grants reaching community organizations that serve residents in Flushing, Jackson Heights, Ozone Park, Astoria, Sunnyside, and nearby areas. The foundation’s recent activity shows sustained support for medical operations and a second layer of giving aimed at organizations that strengthen access, community connection, and daily life in the same local footprint.
A core part of the foundation’s portfolio is hospital and medical-practice support. In 2025, it gave $86,764,803 to New York Queens Medicine & Surgery Pc for support, continuing a multi-year pattern of very large operating grants to the same recipient. Alongside that institutional funding, the foundation backs neighborhood infrastructure: it awarded $94,100 to Downtown Flushing Transit Hub in 2023 and another $8,000 in 2025. It also supports cultural institutions that serve Queens residents, including $16,000 to Queens Theatre in 2025 and $15,000 to Flushing Town Hall in 2024. Community service organizations appear as well, such as $11,500 to Sunnyside Community Services and $10,500 to Voces Latina, both in 2025. These grants show a mix of medical, civic, cultural, and social-service support tied to Queens communities.
Typical grants are modest outside the hospital network: the distribution sits at $9,580 at the 25th percentile, $12,500 at the median, and $22,275 at the 75th percentile. That pattern sits alongside a much larger set of institutional awards to the same medical-practice recipient over multiple years, indicating recurring support rather than isolated one-time giving. The foundation is a public charity and does not fund individuals. It also does not make program-related investments. Recent grant data show a local structure with all recorded recipient locations in New York.

Heavily concentrated: one extremely large recipient (New York Queens Medicine & Surgery PC) receives the vast majority of dollars, while the remainder of grants are relatively small, discretionary awards distributed across many local nonprofits, with several repeat grantees in arts, community services, and civic projects.

Giving is concentrated in Queens neighborhoods, especially Flushing. Recent grants also reached Jackson Heights, Astoria, Sunnyside, Ozone Park, Kew Gardens, Little Neck, Bayside, Whitestone, and Brooklyn, all in New York. Flushing appears repeatedly through awards to community, cultural, and civic organizations, while Jackson Heights and Astoria show up in immigrant-services and community-support grants. The recipient country distribution is entirely U.S.-based, with 34 grants in the United States.
Among grants outside the large hospital-network awards, the typical size is $9,580 at the 25th percentile, $12,500 at the median, and $22,275 at the 75th percentile. That points to a mostly small-grant profile for community awards, alongside a very large recurring commitment to the medical-practice recipient.
Flushing is the most frequent place in the recent grants, followed by other Queens neighborhoods such as Jackson Heights, Astoria, Sunnyside, Kew Gardens, Bayside, Whitestone, Ozone Park, Little Neck, and Brooklyn. All recorded grants in the sample go to U.S. recipients.
