On November 19, 1756, a small group of native-born
Scots and Scottish Americans met in lower Manhattan to form what is
now the oldest established charitable organization in the Empire
State — the Saint Andrew’s Society of the State of New York.
We have grown considerably over the last two and one half centuries
from those few Colonial gentlemen to nearly a thousand men of
Scottish blood, residing in all regions of the tri-state area and
beyond.
The original charity “box” of the Scots Society of New York, our
predecessor, founded in 1744 has grown, through the generosity of
our membership and the acumen of the Investments Committee, into
several substantial funds that allow the Society to fulfill its
charitable purpose in ways that would make our founders most proud. |
