On this page: the 6 places inside NTA MN0302, “Lower East Side” (MN03 Lower East Side-Chinatown (CD 3 Equivalent)). 3 of them give a city in their address; the page files every one by its point, not by that word. What they are, by their tags: 3 community centres, 1 association office, 1 food bank, 1 outreach facility.

The records are named OpenStreetMap objects tagged office=ngo, charity, association or foundation, amenity=social_facility or amenity=community_centre, read with one Overpass API request (data as of 14:26 UTC on 29 September 2026), each filed in the 2020 Neighborhood Tabulation Area whose outline holds its point. OpenStreetMap records no legal status, so this is not a list of registered charities. The register’s method says what it reads and what it cannot say.
