92NY Need-Based Financial Assistance Program

We offer need-based financial assistance for all 92NY programs for children and adults and encourage you to apply. We are committed to making our programming accessible to a diverse 92NY community, and we hope that you will be able to join us.

Who Can Apply for Financial Assistance?

While anyone can apply at any time for financial assistance, we allocate assistance based on need, as illustrated through the application process.

Applications are evaluated through a consistent and equitable review process that considers household income, expenses, family size, and other relevant circumstances. All information and supporting documentation provided are carefully reviewed when determining eligibility and award amounts.

To serve the greatest number of individuals and families, most financial assistance awards are partial.

We welcome prior financial assistance recipients to re-apply, although we cannot guarantee the same level of assistance from year to year

What Can Financial Assistance Cover at 92NY?

Financial assistance can be utilized for any membership and fee-based program at 92NY. For fee-based programming, please review our online class listing carefully before applying for financial assistance and be prepared to tell us exactly which class, start date and time you are seeking.

Please note that some 92NY programs, including camps and afterschool require a deposit to hold a spot in the program prior to applying for financial assistance. Please reach out to the scholarship office or corresponding department office if you have questions about making a deposit.

For one-time ticketed events including talks, concerts and performances, we encourage you to check out our sliding-scale rates and online event options as well as our Collective Membership Program which offers tickets at a reduced rate.

For information on financial assistance for High Holiday Services, please contact scholarships or the Bronfman Center for Jewish Life.
