New York Life Foundation Aim High Grants

The New York Life Foundation is set to award 30 grants to out-of-school time (OST) programs serving youth through their Aim High grant program. Aim High is part of the New York Life Foundation’s ongoing investment in OST programs to help underserved middle school youth reach the 9th grade on time and be better prepared for high school. Both one-year grants for $20,000 and two-year grants for $100,000 are available, with all grants beginning in August 2025. Awardees must be nonprofit organizations serving middle school youth, with at least 75% of those served from families with low incomes. Learn more about proposal criteria and applicant eligibility via the Aim High grant webpage and view a recording of a recent info session for a program overview and application tips. Applications are due March 7, 2025 at 5:00 PM and can be submitted electronically.
