New Futures was one of two nonprofits in the Puget Sound area to be awarded the prestigious 2007 Neighborhood Builder Award by the Bank of America Charitable Foundation, as part of the bank’s Neighborhood Excellence Initiative.

The award provides recipients with $200,000 in operating support over a two-year period. It also sponsors an innovative leadership development program for the executive director and an emerging leader to learn with other nonprofits leaders from across the country.
