WEDI is a Section 501(c) (3) charitable organization, EIN 20-4230463. All donations are deemed tax-deductible absent any limitations on deductibility applicable to a particular taxpayer. No goods or services were provided in exchange for your contribution.

Thank you from the WEDI staff and our clients for all you do to support our mission to strengthen communities through a continuum of educational and financial resources, removing systemic barriers to economic equity for all Western New Yorkers. Together, we can work to create a more equitable Buffalo. 

With generous supporters like you, WEDI was able to accomplish the following in 2023:

- 100% of WEDI students in our ENERGY, FLY, and Launch programs increased their literacy levels and proceeded to the next grade level or graduated.

- Exceeded our target goal of $195,000 in microloan disbursement to underserved and underbanked small business owners.

- Opened both the Downtown Bazaar and the West Side Bazaar to incubate 11 restaurants, retail space, food retail space, a mental health office, and space for events and pop-up markets.

Please continue to support us by shopping and eating with us at our Downtown Bazaar and West Side Bazaar-- this directly supports the business owners and their families. To volunteer in our education programs with multi-lingual language learners in grades 1-12 or to become a business mentor for our economic development clients, please visit wedibuffalo.org/volunteer.

We appreciate your continued support.
