The Robin Hood Foundation is a charitable organization which attempts to alleviate problems caused by poverty in New York City. The organization also administers a relief fund for disasters in the New York City area. In 2010, a key supporter gave every family with children on welfare in New York State $200 to buy school supplies.[6] In 2017, Wes Moore became the first CEO.[7] In September 2021, Richard Buery, Jr. replaced Moore as the CEO.[8]
