Help us provide all New Yorkers with a healthy meal this holiday season. Last year, we served nearly 15,000 families turkeys and holiday food packages. This year, we're aiming for more than 16,000 families.

Thanks to our collective advocacy efforts across the emergency feeding network, funding for the Community Food Connection Program (CFC) will no longer be cut in half under the budget deal reached by NYC Mayor Eric Adams and the city council a few weeks ago. The $112 billion budget for this fiscal year will maintain full funding of CFC at roughly $57 million for the program, that supports 500 emergency food providers across the city. This will ensure that the more than one million New Yorkers facing food insecurity can continue to feed themselves and their families.

We are thrilled to announce that Episode 5 of WSCAH’s Hangry for Change podcast is now available online! This episode, titled "Nourishing the Newest New Yorkers", delves into the impact of the recent influx of 160,000 asylum seekers to NYC, with Manhattan and Queens now home to about 70% of them.
