| Many organizations ask us what kinds of grants we give. We hope the following sampling of some of our recent grants will help. |
Adelphi University: Long Island is suffering from a serious shortage of nurses. Roslyn Savings Foundation established an endowed Scholarship to provide funds for students attending the School of Nursing. We hope that this scholarship will put nursing school within the reach of students who might not otherwise be able to attend, while addressing a critical need on Long Island. |
The Child Center of New York: In line with our emphasis on children and preventative care, Roslyn Savings Foundation supports the Trude Weishaupt Center child abuse prevention program, which provides counseling and support for families struggling with issues of neglect and abuse. |
Good Samaritan Hospital: In our continuing effort to improve the quality and efficiency of the nursing community on Long Island, Roslyn Savings Foundation supported the establishment of a learning lab for on-site training to those individuals interested in furthering their career in nursing. |

Island Harvest: In support of Island Harvests’ mission to help those in need on Long Island, Roslyn Savings Foundation purchased food transport containers, which facilitated the local rescue and dispersal of over seven million pounds of food in 2007. |
 Long Island Children’s Museum: Roslyn Savings Foundation is committed to connecting Long Island’s children with their natural environment. We are proud to support the Children’s Museum’s Our Backyard exhibit and its education programs. |
