ROBIN HOOD
Congratulations to SCO Family of Services, the winner of our $1 million contest to support New York City teens living in poverty. Thanks to everyone who participated. Together, you cast over a million votes and helped raise awareness of the critical need that exists in this city.
Each of the organizations will receive a portion of the $1 million prize to help them feed, guide, heal, shelter, teach and train New York City teens. We thank you for taking the time to learn more and voice your choice, and we hope that you will continue to support the work that these five tremendous organizations do every single day.
One million votes. $1 million. Together we can make a difference in the lives of
New Yorkers in need.
Thank you for being Robin Hood.

Attack the Source: We identify and go after poverty at its roots
Add Value: We protect and leverage Robin Hood’s investments by helping programs become more effective
Get Results: We evaluate programs, measure results and refuse to settle for less than the best
