We’re in the business of growing the Queens economy. Every year, we do that through a variety of programs that serve more than 3,000 of our neighbors.
Queens is home to 2.3 million people – nearly all of whom have been touched by our work in some way. We've helped thousands of entrepreneurs start businesses that employ thousands more, promoted events and attractions that have driven tens of millions of visitors, and supported organizations that made our neighborhoods the envy of the world.
Creating the future of the Queens economy takes all of us. We gratefully acknowledge the dedicated support of our city, state, and federal government partners, and we're thankful for additional generous support from private foundations, corporate sponshorship, and individual philantropy. If you love Queens as much as we do, consider joining our mission through funding support, volunteering, or other means.
The American Dream is alive in Queens – and with no-cost entrepreneur assistance and business education, QEDC can make yours a reality.
