The Food Pantry getting ready to distribute food

Client Choice Pantry line, Richmond Hill, Queens

     Current economic trends are adversely affecting both low and middle income New Yorkers making it difficult for families to afford healthy food.

     Healthy lifestyles are being compromised by inexpensive, low nutritional value foods that contribute to diet-related conditions such as: diabetes, obesity and hypertension; especially among  children, women, seniors and people with disabilities.

     To serve the growing needs of our clients, we hope you will support us in reaching our goals for 2011: 

  • Receive and store more fresh, nutritious products
  • Increase food distribution
  • Implement new support services

 

                                Make a difference in the lives of people living with hunger.

No donation is too small.
