Greyston Foundation
Best known for its world-renowned bakery, where formerly homeless people produce
some of New York's finest baked goods, the Yonkers-based Greyston Foundation is
an integrated network of local community organizations. The Foundation provides
job training, employment, affordable housing, daycare, HIV health care and many
other services.
From its founding in 1982 by a Buddhist monk, Roshi Bernie Glassman, Greyston has grown
into a $13 million operation employing more than 130 staff over 30 percent of whom are entry
level. Each year, Greyston provides programs and services to more than 1,500 low-income men,
women and children.
Greyston is a beacon of light, helping individuals and families break the cycle
of poverty. By providing housing for the homeless and creating job training and
opportunities for the "hard to employ," Greyston is among New York's most
effective and creative social service organizations.
