Wildcat Service Corporation

Wildcat is the beneficiary of a blend of both public and private funding. We are grateful to the organizations and individuals who believe in and support our efforts to provide creative workforce development solutions for New York’s unemployed and underemployed.

Public Funding

City, state and federal agencies frequently engage Wildcat to service populations that have extremely challenging personal and vocational barriers to overcome before they can achieve self-sufficiency. Public funders for recent workforce, youth and economic development programming have included the following:

Center for Economic Opportunity
NYC Department of Education
NYC Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications
NYC Department of Small Business Services
NYC Department of Youth and Community Development
NYC Human Resources Administration
New York State Department of Labor
New York State Division of Probation and Correctional Alternatives
New York State Industries for the Disabled

Foundation and Grant Funding

Wildcat relies on private funds to develop and incubate our new initiatives. Private support is essential to our ability to stay ahead of trends and to maintain the highest quality of service. Recent private funders have included:

Alcoa Foundation
Citi Foundation
The Heckscher Foundation for Children
IBM
Ira W. DeCamp Foundation
New York Community Trust

2008 Annual Fundraising Campaign
