The Taft Houses is a NYCHA development located in East Harlem. Our goal will be to strengthen the sense of community and camaraderie among the, approximately, 500-600 children (ages 4-14) who live in Taft’s 1,520 units.

Solutions Now and its volunteers and supporters will become mentors, both in fact and by proxy, to a whole generation of young people in this richly deserving community. Of course, none of this would be possible without the support of our friend and partner, Beverly Mac Farland, the Resident President of The Senator Robert A. Taft Residential Association.

Solutions Now will collaborate with your organization to develop a tailored program that links our work with the families of the Robert A. Taft Houses in Harlem to your company’s long term social impact objectives.
We will learn about your organizational needs and brand values so that we may leverage them to create a mutually beneficial partnership.
Over the next several years, we will look to develop character-building and experiential learning opportunities specifically designed to open up the artistic, cultural and educational resources available in New York City to the children of under-served communities located there.
What makes Solutions Now special is that your support directly benefits the 500+ children of the Robert A. Taft Houses, an intimate and enduring community in East Harlem that you can readily visit, and whose families you can meet in person in order to see the impact your donation dollars have in real life.
We invite the corporate, cultural, and educational institutions of our fine city to partner with us in order to develop and execute programs whose content will span the arts, culture, STEM, outdoor exploration, wellness and leadership development.
