'''The Doe Fund''' is a [[nonprofit]] organization in the United States that provides paid transitional work, housing, educational opportunities, counseling, and career training to people with histories of [[homelessness]], [[incarceration]], and [[substance abuse]].
The Doe Fund runs Ready, Willing & Able, a "work first" program contracted to [[New York City]]; the program aims to secure permanent housing and [[employment]] for the homeless and to break the cycles of [[homelessness]], [[addiction]] and criminal [[recidivism]].
==Origins==
The Doe Fund was founded in 1985 by [[George T. McDonald]]<ref name="Public Lives">{{cite news|title=Public Lives; A Blue Jumpsuit and a Path to Self-Sufficiency|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2003/06/04/nyregion/public-lives-a-blue-jumpsuit-and-a-path-to-self-sufficiency.html|accessdate=7 December 2011|newspaper=The New York Times|date=June 4, 2003|first=Lynda|last=Richardson}}</ref> during a sharp rise in homelessness in New York City.<ref name="Coalition for the Homeless">{{cite web|title=Basic Facts About Homelessness |url=http://www.coalitionforthehomeless.org/pages/basic-facts|publisher=Coalition for the Homeless|accessdate=18 May 2012}}</ref>
McDonald, an executive in the [[private sector]] at that time, began by distributing food to homeless people on the floor of [[Grand Central Terminal]] for 700 consecutive nights.<ref name="Public Lives" />
McDonald later recalled people telling him "'…this is a great sandwich, but I really wish I had a room to stay in and a job to pay for it.' People wanted to work, and I wanted to help."<ref name="HuffPo 20th">{{cite news|last=Anthony|first=Attiyya|title=Ready, Willing & Able Celebrates 20th Year|url=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/attiyya-anthony/ready-willing-able-celebr_b_840592.html|work=The Huffington Post|accessdate=7 December 2011|date=25 March 2011}}</ref>
George McDonald's beliefs differ from many other homeless activists; he is more conservative and places an emphasis on putting the homeless to work, a philosophy referred to as "work-first."<ref name="Doe Rises">{{cite news|last=McGowan|first=Kathleen|title=How The Doe Rises|url=http://www.citylimits.org/news/articles/306/how-the-doe-rises|accessdate=7 December 2011|newspaper=City Limits Magazine|date=February 28, 2000}}</ref>
==Leadership and early history==
George McDonald, founder of The Doe Fund, was working as a garment industry executive when he became conscious of New York's growing homeless population. He was motivated to do something about it by the teachings of his [[Catholic]] school education stressing the importance of community service and supporting those who are less fortunate.<ref name="Public Lives"/>
He started by handing out sandwiches at Grand Central Terminal while running for [[United States Congress]]. Though his three runs were unsuccessful, the visibility he gained from campaigning provided him a platform from which to advocate for the homeless.<ref name="People">{{cite news|last=Miller|first=Samantha|title=Task Master|url=http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20126937,00.html|accessdate=7 December 2011|magazine=People Magazine|date=November 30, 1998}}</ref>
In 1985, a homeless woman known only as "Mama"—whom had fed and befriended—died of exposure, the result of spending the night on a concrete sidewalk after being ejected from Grand Central Terminal on [[Christmas]] Eve by Metro-North police, despite her [[pneumonia]] and the freezing temperatures outside. The incident led McDonald to redirect his executive career to focus on providing the homeless with a way off the streets. He created the organization he called The Doe Fund in honor of “Mama Doe.”<ref name="Inquirer">{{cite news|last=Goldman|first=Henry|title=Trainees Gaining Jobs And Losing Addictions.

Three years later, he lost another homeless friend from the terminal. According to news accounts at that time, April Savino was a spirited and smart but crack-addicted teenager, who, having lost all hope for a better life, took her own life on the steps of Saint Agnes Church on East 43rd St.<ref>{{cite news|last=Hevesi|first=Dennis|title=Running Away|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1988/10/02/magazine/running-away.html |magazine=The New York Times Magazine|accessdate=7 December 2011|date=2 October 1988}}</ref>
At her funeral, McDonald gave the eulogy<ref name="TheDoeFund Youtube Page">{{cite web|title=Harriet McDonald speaks at The Doe Fund's 2009 Gala|publisher=The Doe Fund|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmLcG3421wY |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211214/hmLcG3421wY |archive-date=2021-12-14 |url-status=live|accessdate=7 December 2011}}{{cbignore}}</ref> and afterwards was approached by Harriet Karr-McDonald (then Harriet Karr), a screenwriter and actress<ref name="The Internet Movie Database (IMDb)">{{cite web|title=Harriet Karr|publisher=IMDb|url=https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0440069 |accessdate=7 December 2011}}</ref> from [[Beverly Hills]].<ref name="Doe.org Founders">{{cite web|title=About Us: Founders|publisher=The Doe Fund|url=http://www.doe.org/about/?aboutID=24|accessdate=7 December 2011}}</ref>
Karr-McDonald, who grew up in Greenwich Village, became close to April while in New York researching a [[screenplay]] about homeless people living in Grand Central Terminal. Karr-McDonald had arranged for her to enter a rehabilitation center. Once April completed treatment, Karr-McDonald intended to adopt her and bring her home - but April hid from her on the day they were scheduled to leave New York. Karr-McDonald has said her inability to save April influenced her decision to devote her life to the homeless and move to New York to work with George McDonald.<ref name="TheDoeFund Youtube Page"/> Within six months, the two were married and subsequently established further Doe Fund initiatives together.<ref name="Doe.org Founders"/>
As The Doe Fund's Executive Vice President, Karr-McDonald presided over development of the organization's programs and its fund-raising efforts.<ref>{{cite news|last=Roug|first=Louise|title=Charities feel Wall Street's pain|url= https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2008-apr-29-na-philanthropy29-story.html|access-date=20 May 2012|newspaper=Los Angeles Times|date=April 29, 2008}}</ref>
On January 8, 2021, it was announced that Karr-McDonald would succeed her husband as CEO of The Doe Fund.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Prest |first1=M.J. |title=Dana Foundation Will Install New President in March |url=https://www.philanthropy.com/article/dana-foundation-will-install-new-president-in-march |website=www.philanthropy.com |publisher=[[The Chronicle of Philanthropy]] |access-date=7 May 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210108170026/https://www.philanthropy.com/article/dana-foundation-will-install-new-president-in-march |archive-date=January 8, 2021 |language=en-us |date=8 January 2021}}</ref> Later that month, on January 26, McDonald died of complications related to lung cancer at the age of 76.<ref>{{Cite web|last1=Annese|first1=John|last2=Greene|first2=Leonard|title=George McDonald, who founded NYC homeless advocacy nonprofit The Doe Fund, dead at 76|url=https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/ny-doe-fund-founder-george-mcdonald-20210127-5nut4kp3ujhijdolmiv25mauui-story.html|access-date=2021-01-27|website=nydailynews.com|date=27 January 2021 }}</ref>
==Ready, Willing & Able==
Since 1990, the Doe Fund has won more than $262 million in contracts from New York City, primarily for Ready, Willing & Able, a transitional project to employ and house the homeless.<ref name="NYCbloomberg">{{cite news|first1=Serge F.|last1=Kovaleski|accessdate=2022-04-30|title=Charity Backing Bloomberg 3rd Term Got Millions|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/07/nyregion/07doe.html|newspaper=The New York Times|date=7 August 2010|issn=0362-4331|via=NYTimes.com}}</ref> Performance evaluations of Ready, Willing, & Able by the city have been mixed.<ref name="NYCbloomberg" />

The project is supported by both the city and by private donations; [[Michael R. Bloomberg]] was a major donor in the past.<ref name="NYCbloomberg" /><ref>{{cite news|last=Allon|first=Janet|title=Putting Out Word on Picking Up Trash|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1997/04/27/nyregion/putting-out-word-on-picking-up-trash.html|accessdate=28 May 2012|newspaper=The New York Times|date=April 27, 1997}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|last=Allon|first=Janet|title=The Lives Behind The Brooms|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1997/09/07/nyregion/the-lives-behind-the-brooms.html|accessdate=28 May 2012|newspaper=The New York Times|date=September 7, 1997}}</ref> The Doe Fund's recent contracts were awarded via "negotiated acquisition", which limits the amount of competition for them.<ref name="Doe Rises" />
To enter the program, participants must pledge abstinence from using drugs and alcohol, forego [[public assistance|entitlements]] (with the exception of [[Medicaid]]), and agree to submit to random, twice-weekly drug tests. They also must sign waivers allowing The Doe Fund to identify orders for any current or past [[child support]] they may owe. Once accepted, they move into one of Ready, Willing & Able's dormitory-style residences, and, following a month of counseling and orientation during which they receive a small weekly stipend, they are put to work for 30 hours a week and are paid the state minimum wage. All are first assigned to a Ready, Willing & Able cleaning crew, after which they can transition to work in the culinary arts, as drivers, on security details, or in other assignments—most of these positions created by The Doe Fund's various [[The Doe Fund#Social ventures|social entrepreneurial ventures]]. All take classes in life and computer skills, job preparation and financial management.  After three months, they are offered occupational training in fields that include culinary arts, [[green building]] maintenance and [[pest control]].<ref name="Internal RWA Study">{{Citation |title=Internal RWA Study | last1 = Sirois | first1 = C.  | last2 = Western | first2 = B.  | contribution = An Evaluation of “Ready, Willing & Able”  | series = The Doe Fund | place = New York, New York  | year = 2010 }}</ref> Graduation from the program comes 9–12 months later, once they have found full-time employment, are living in their own non-subsidized apartments, maintaining complete sobriety and, if applicable, paying child support.<ref>{{cite news|last=Fastenberg|first=Dan|title=Doe Fund Helps Ex-Cons Join Ranks of the Employed|url=https://www.aol.com/2011/10/04/doe-fund-helps-ex-convicts-join-the-ranks-of-the-employed/|accessdate=7 December 2011|newspaper=AOL Jobs|date=October 4, 2011}}</ref>  Sixty-two percent graduate from the program.<ref>{{cite news|last=Toscano|first=John|title=Community Clean Up, Jobs Rehab Program Gets $564 G Fed Grant|url=http://www.qgazette.com/news/2008-04-16/features/019.html|accessdate=7 December 2011|newspaper=Western Queens Gazette|date=April 16, 2008}}</ref>

==Social ventures==
The Doe Fund operates social entrepreneurial ventures that provide paid [[apprenticeship]]s and career training to Ready, Willing & Able trainees,<ref name="Work Assignments">{{cite web|title= Ready Willing & Able Work Assignments|publisher=The Doe Fund|url=http://www.doe.org/programs/?programID=2|accessdate=20 May 2012}}</ref> including:

==Funding==
While some of The Doe Fund's projects are self-sustaining, the charity also receives funding from major corporations, foundations, and private individuals, including [[Michael Bloomberg]].<ref name="NYCbloomberg" /> It has received multiple grants from the [[Carnegie Corporation]], which has supported more than 550 New York City arts and social service institutions since its inception in 2002.<ref name="Doe.org About">{{cite web|title=About Us: Sponsors|publisher=The Doe Fund|url=http://www.doe.org/about/?aboutID=6|accessdate=7 December 2011}}</ref>  In June 2011, The Doe Fund was one of seven organizations to receive a grant from the U.S. [[United States Department of Labor|Department of Labor]] (DOL) through the Enhanced Transitional Jobs Demonstration program. The $5.6 million award was given to support the Ready, Willing & Able transitional jobs program and was earmarked to help parolees—many of them non-custodial parents—gain employment and stay out of prison.<ref name="ETJD">{{cite web|title= US Labor Department announces nearly $40 million for Enhanced Transitional Jobs Demonstration programs|url= http://www.dol.gov/opa/media/press/eta/eta20110963.htm

==Awards==
The work of The Doe Fund and its founder has received numerous awards and honors. The [[Department of Housing and Urban Development]] (HUD) has given it multiple honors, including HUD's first-ever Award for Best Practices, instituted in 1999.<ref name="Modern Homelessness">{{cite book |title=Modern Homelessness: A Reference Handbook |last=Hombs |first=Mary Ellen|year=2011 |publisher=ABC-CLIO |location=Santa Barbara |isbn=9781598845372 |page=161 |accessdate=28 May 2012|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=C8tjGTW9yeoC}}</ref>
The [[Manhattan Institute for Policy Research]] awarded the [[William E. Simon]] Prize for Lifetime Achievement in Social Entrepreneurship to McDonald in 2008 for his work-based programs to reduce homelessness and criminal recidivism. The institute credited McDonald with “changing the way the problem of homelessness is understood, going far beyond the provision of shelter to help former street people and prisoners regain their self-respect and become productive citizens.”<ref>{{cite web|title=The Manhattan Institute Social Entrepreneurship Initiative William E.

McDonald was honored personally in 2004 with a [[New York Post]] Liberty Medal Award, which the newspaper bestows annually upon individuals who “epitomize the city’s unsung heroes.”<ref>{{cite news|last=Delfiner|first=Rita|title=In the News: Quiet Heroes Get Their Due|url=http://w3.nexis.com/new/results/docview/docview.do?docLinkInd=true&risb=21_T13314958839&format=GNBFI&sort=BOOLEAN&startDocNo=1&resultsUrlKey=29_T13314958847&cisb=22_T13314958846&treeMax=true&treeWidth=0&csi=164207&docNo=4|accessdate=7 December 2011|newspaper=New York Post|date=October 8, 2004}}</ref>
==Criticism==
Early in The Doe Fund's existence, McDonald got in disputes with New York's [[Coalition for the Homeless]] for whom he used to volunteer. At issue was the fact that Ready, Willing & Able charged the homeless to stay in their city-financed shelters.<ref>{{cite news|first1=Alex|last1=Traub|accessdate=2022-04-30|title=George McDonald, Power Broker for the Powerless, Dies at 76|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/04/nyregion/george-mcdonald-dead.html|newspaper=The New York Times|date=4 February 2021|issn=0362-4331|via=NYTimes.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|first1=Rachel L.|last1=Swarns|accessdate=2022-04-30|title=Group Accused Of Disrupting Work Program|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1997/03/18/nyregion/group-accused-of-disrupting-work-program.html|newspaper=The New York Times|date=18 March 1997|issn=0362-4331|via=NYTimes.com}}</ref>
In 2006, the U.S. [[United States Department of Labor|Department of Labor]] conducted audits of each of its Welfare-to-Work contracts, one of which had been awarded to The Doe Fund. The initial audit report stated that approximately $1.6 million of a $5 million grant was improperly allocated,<ref>{{cite web|title=Welfare-to-Work Grant, The Doe Fund, Inc., September 2006|url=http://www.oig.dol.gov/public/reports/oa/2006/02-06-206-03-386.pdf|publisher=US Department of Labor, Office of Inspector General|accessdate=7 December 2011}}</ref> though this finding was revised in a subsequent 2008 review, which determined that more than two-thirds of the previously disallowed funds had been properly administered.<ref>{{cite web|title=US Department of Labor Revises Doe Fund Audit|url=http://www.docstoc.com/docs/95649001/Department-of-Labor-Dismisses-Audit-finding-that--The-Doe-Fund-misused-a-portion-of-a-Welfare-to-Work-grant|publisher=United States Department of Labor|accessdate=7 December 2011}}</ref>
The ''[[New York Daily News]]'' said McDonald had blurred the lines between his personal and professional life by pocketing the $100,000 honorarium accompanying the 2008 [[William E. Simon]] Prize for Lifetime Achievement in [[Social Entrepreneur]]ship. The ''Daily News'' said it was intended for his charity, though The Doe Fund's board voted to award it to him for his leadership.<ref>{{cite news|last=Moore|first=Tina|title=Doe Fund nonprofit head George McDonald pocketed $100,000 prize given to the charity|url=http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/doe-fund-nonprofit-head-george-mcdonald-pocketed-100-000-prize-charity-article-1.453469|accessdate=7 December 2011|newspaper=New York Daily News|date=November 5, 2010}}</ref> The [[Manhattan Institute]] issued a clarification stating that these honoraria are awarded to individuals "in the tradition of [[Nobel Prize]] and [[John D. MacArthur|MacArthur]] [[MacArthur Fellows Program|'genius' awards]]" and that the money was intended for McDonald individually. The Manhattan Institute has since presented honorarium checks in the name of the award winner, as was customary before they began administering the prize in 2007.<ref>{{cite web|last=Mone|first=Lawrence Mone|title=Manhattan Institute Clarification Regarding 2008 William E Simon Award to Doe Fund President George McDonald|url=http://www.docstoc.com/docs/95660382/Manhattan-Institute-Clarification-Regarding-2008-William-E-Simon-Award-to-Doe-Fund-President-George-McDonald|publisher=The Manhattan Institute|accessdate=7 December 2011|date=May 17, 2011}}</ref>
In 2009, the ''[[New York Post]]'' criticized the charity, questioning the compensation it paid McDonald.<ref>{{cite news|last=Topousis|first=Tom|title=THE 'DOUGH' FUND|url=http://www.nypost.com/p/news/regional/item_8hhAGYIL6b9926uH7c6znL;jsessionid=4859A499BB3EB45301C468E253AF36B2|accessdate=7 December 2011|newspaper=New York Post|date=June 29, 2009}}</ref> In a response letter, the chairman of The Doe Fund's board of directors wrote that their executive compensation is comparable to other non-profit organizations of a similar size and complexity.<ref>{{cite news|last=Resnick|first=Peter|title=DOE DOES GOOD|url=http://www.nypost.com/p/news/opinion/letters/doe_does_good_HijctKRL3Yykezo99xvHBP|accessdate=29 May 2012|newspaper=New York Post|date=July 6, 2009}}</ref> The [[Better Business Bureau]] (BBB) said that The Doe Fund meets all 20 BBB Standards for Charity Accountability, and that McDonald's salary is less than 1% of the organization's operating budget.<ref>{{cite web|title=New York BBB Wise Giving Report for Doe Fund|url=http://search.newyork.bbb.org/reports.aspx?action=search2&page=0&cid=1143&Name=doe+fund&Region=Any&Category=Any&letter=&Ranking=&meetLetter=m|publisher=Better Business Bureau|accessdate=7 December 2011}}</ref>
A 2010 report by ''[[The New York Times]]''  questioned whether donations to The Doe Fund by New York City Mayor [[Michael Bloomberg]] or his charities were an attempt to influence testimony in support of Bloomberg's 2008 bid to overturn [[term limits]]. After Bloomberg's requests for testimony from charities he supported, McDonald and about 20 Doe Fund employees testified in City Council hearings in favor of easing term limits. Bloomberg had been a Doe Fund supporter since "long before he first ran for office," according to a mayoral spokesman, and had made large contributions in the years before and after the hearing. A Doe Fund spokesman quoted in the report said McDonald had given continued "vocal opposition to term limits" for city officials since 1993 when he supported the Coalition for Voters Choice in its unsuccessful efforts to prevent the [[Government of New York City#Term limits and campaign finance|term limits measure from becoming law]].<ref>{{cite news|last=Kovaleski|first=Serge F.|title=Charity Backing Bloomberg 3rd Term Got Millions|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/07/nyregion/07doe.html?pagewanted=all|accessdate=7 December 2011|newspaper=The New York Times|date=November 6, 2010}}</ref>
