Since 1959, the Cooper Square Committee has been fighting the displacement of low income people from the Lower East Side by preventing evictions, counseling tenants about their rights, developing and preserving affordable housing on formerly city-owned land, facilitating the transfer of city-owned buildings to community ownership, and advocating for appropriate development.

The Cooper Square Committee is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. All donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law. We have achieved many significant community victories on a modest budget, so please consider supporting our work through a contribution.

We encourage setting up a recurring payment to CSC. Showing your support can be hassle-free when you arrange monthly or yearly donations of any amount that are automatically deducted from your account.
