The Century 21 Associates Foundation concentrates its giving on Orthodox Jewish institutional support, primarily funding yeshivas, dormitory/boarding needs for boys, and organizations serving the Jewish community both in New York and Israel. Grants are large and targeted, supporting a small number of faith-based educational and communal institutions, with some funding directed to special-needs services for children. The portfolio also includes explicit support for Israel-related causes, indicating a combined local (NYC Jewish education and care) and international (Israel defense/support) philanthropic focus.
Concentrated, high-dollar giving to a small set of organizations with repeat grants to key yeshivas and institutional recipients rather than many small awards.
Century 21 Associates Foundation Inc’s largest recent grant went to Flatbush Yeshiva Of, a $732,500 general support award in 2023 that sets the tone for its giving. The foundation consistently backs Orthodox Jewish educational and communal institutions, with repeated support for yeshivas, synagogue-linked organizations, and services tied to Jewish community life. Recent grants also show a continuing pattern of support for Yeshivat Magen Abraham, which received $333,333 in 2025 after a $333,000 grant in 2024, suggesting sustained institutional backing rather than one-time project funding. The portfolio reaches beyond schools into organizations serving broader Jewish needs. Awards to The Special Children’s Center support services for children with special needs, while funding to Uja Federation of New York and American Friends of Migdal Ohr shows support for federation infrastructure and Israel-connected institutions. Several grants are labeled general support, and the recurring presence of the same organizations across multiple years points to long-term relationships with selected recipients. The foundation’s pattern is concentrated, faith-based, and institution-focused, with New York organizations receiving the bulk of its grants and Israel-related charities also appearing in the recent record.
Orthodox Jewish education is central to the foundation’s grantmaking. In 2025, it gave $333,333 to Yeshivat Magen Abraham for general support, and the same organization received $333,000 in 2024. It also supports special-needs services. The Special Children’s Center received $162,500 in 2024 and $100,000 in 2025, both for general support, indicating continued backing for that organization’s work with children. Israel-related giving appears in multiple recent grants. American Friends of Migdal Ohr received $100,000 in 2024 and another $100,000 in 2025, and American Israel Education Foundation received $100,000 in 2024 and $75,000 in 2023. Community institutions tied to Jewish life in New York also appear frequently, including Uja Federation of New York and Synagogue of Deal.
Typical grants are small at the low end and much larger at the upper end: the 25th percentile is $52, the median is $152, and the 75th percentile is $990. That spread reflects a mix of modest awards and a smaller number of high-dollar institutional grants. The recent record shows repeated support for several organizations across multiple years, including Yeshivat Magen Abraham, The Special Children’s Center, American Friends of Migdal Ohr, American Israel Education Foundation, Uja Federation of New York, Synagogue of Deal, and Hillel Yeshiva. Grants are described as general support, pointing to operating-style funding rather than tightly project-restricted awards. The foundation funds individuals and makes no program-related investments.
