Welcome to the Buffalo Renaissance Foundation

Letter from the President
It’s an exciting time to serve as 19th President of the Buffalo Renaissance Foundation!
Many charitable organizations, all started with great intentions and causes, fail to survive after an initial burst of success. The BRF, founded on lofty goals and ideals, fortified by the test of time, has evolved into an influential force of positive energy in its twenty-sixth year of service to Buffalo.
With the appointment of fourteen new directors over the past four years, we are positioned to mark new ground in our mission to “Build a Better Buffalo,” enabling programs and dialogue to retain our children’s bright future in Western New York. We would like nothing less than for our youth to have every opportunity to enjoy Buffalo’s great quality of life, for a lifetime.
Our annual Spring Luncheon will benefit a newly created “Renaissance Fellowship” program, an endowment established with the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus to fund summer internships for area youth, with the goal of retaining our best and brightest students in the start of an exciting career in Buffalo’s evolving medical corridor.
We plan to foster additional “Renaissance Fellowships” across multiple industries, nurturing the roots of our children’s desire to succeed in their hometown.
With our strong group of directors and supporters, we remain dedicated to sing the praises of our community’s assets and to sow the seeds of Buffalo’s renaissance.
Believe!
