The Doe Fund is incredibly grateful to Senator Roxanne Persaud for awarding us a $100,000 NYS Senate grant to expand our Ready, Willing & Able fleet. The addition of two new cargo vans will enhance the Men in Blue’s ability to keep 115 miles of city streets clean each week, while providing them with transitional work experience, a steady income, and the opportunity to positively impact their community as they rebuild their lives.
