Disrupting the racial wealth gap means providing essential support in the neighborhoods facing the largest financial barriers in the path to economic prosperity. Struggling families, who may face unexpected expenses like medical bills or moving costs, can receive cash assistance. Restoration Plaza has helped secure over $1 million in cash assistance for Brooklyn residents since 2020.
