Food pantries around New York City are scaling up their operations so families in need can have a hot meal for Thanksgiving. @CityNatalie has more:
The crush of newcomers to food banks around New York City came as hundreds of pantries shut their doors — about one-third of pantries and soup kitchens in the city closed for a period of time, or closed and have not reopened
When the COVID-19 pandemic got tough in New York City, City Harvest got going — delivering tens of millions of pounds of food to pantries, health care providers and individual New Yorkers in need.
In NYC, local food banks and pantries are under strain. A June report from the Food Bank for New York City showed that 50 percent of Bronx food pantries had closed.
As a chef, I’m always thinking about food and the ways in which it can help people. Please keep in mind your local food pantries that work hard to provide food access to all in need. Thank you @CityHarvest for all you do for our city of New York.
