In 2016, the Carnegie Corporation of New York made a $1 million investment in early childhood education and literacy efforts in Flint. They made their grant to
the Foundation for Flint as part of the philanthropic response to the Water Crisis inspired by the C.S. Mott Foundation’s Recover and Rise initiative. We are grateful for their support and for the leadership of the C.S. Mott Foundation.

Also in 2016, following the declarations of emergency from each Flint Mayor Weaver, Michigan Governor Snyder and President Obama, CFGF established the Foundation for Flint and the Flint Child Health and Development Fund (the Fund)
to help respond to the water crisis, and to serve as primary recipient for the outpouring of national support and connector of resources for the greater community. The Foundation for Flint is a supporting organization of CFGF and administers
the Fund, which was founded under the leadership of local civic leaders and Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha — the pediatrician and humanitarian who brought the Water Crisis to national attention. The Fund raises money to mitigate the impact
of the water crisis on children ages 0-8 and is the ultimate destination for gifts made at www.flintkids.org.
