Why
In a city as big as New York, it’s easy to overlook that not every child has basic necessities. I created RaiseNYC after seeing this disparity firsthand—realizing small actions can create real change.
We bring people together to give and act—creating opportunity for those who need it most.

I’m Aksh Kothari, Founder of RaiseNYC. I was inspired to start RaiseNYC after my summer program at Columbia University, where I saw firsthand how many children in New York City lacked basic resources. Our goal is to reduce inequality by providing essential supplies every student needs.

There are a few ways to help out, one of which could be donating. To donate you reach to me by email or cell phone, and drop off items at a location I give. Another could be reaching out to organzie a drive at, with this, you could then transfer the items to me, and then they would be donated.
