Program Coordinator:

The Community Grantmaking Initiative at Fordham University, established in 1841, is dedicated to providing a distinguished education rooted in the Jesuit tradition to over 16,000 students across its various colleges and schools.

With campuses located in diverse settings, including the Bronx and Manhattan, as well as facilities in West Harrison, N.Y., and the London Centre in the United Kingdom, Fordham University is committed to fostering a vibrant academic community.

The University offers a robust benefits package encompassing medical, dental, and vision insurance; flexible spending accounts; retirement plans; life insurance; both short and long-term disability; an employee assistance program (EAP); tuition remission; and generous leave policies.

About the Community Grantmaking Initiative: The Community Grantmaking Initiative, operating as the EPA Region 2 Environmental Justice Thriving Communities Grantmaker program, adopts a comprehensive approach to empower frontline communities in their pursuit of environmental and climate justice, particularly in areas adversely affected by climate change and pollution across New York, New Jersey, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.

The leadership team will leverage Fordham University's resources to distribute grants to community-based organizations and other eligible entities, focusing on rural, remote, coastal, and urban areas, as well as low-income communities and communities of color that have historically faced barriers to accessing federal funding for relevant projects.

  • Assist with managing the initiative's internal budget, tracking expenses, processing payments, and preparing financial reports.
  • Ensure timely handling of invoices and receipts related to program activities.
