Imogen Roche Foundation Inc
City-funded organization
The Imogen Roche Foundation Inc is a nonprofit founded in 2019 by executive director Theseus Roche, who had previously run afterschool programs for Manhattan Youth; per its own website, it runs afterschool, school break camp, and youth advisory board programs focused on social emotional learning and mental wellness for children and teens. In NYC's 2026 COMPASS afterschool re-bid, the foundation was newly awarded a $17,971,200 Department of Youth and Community Development contract, "COMPASS Programs in Public Schools - Middle School" (badged RFP on Checkbook NYC), though Tribeca Citizen reported parents raising concerns that the foundation lacked experience operating large-scale middle school and competitive athletics programming. It has also held five smaller $25,000 NYC Department of Education contracts (each badged "Small purchase") since 2022, received a $5,000 FY2026 discretionary award from Council Member Julie Menin routed through DYCD, and reported paying Roche $100,000 in FY2024 reportable compensation (up from $48,750 in FY2021) on its IRS Form 990 (EIN 83-1897911).
