Building Community Through Food
We provide access to food for all in need.
Our focus is on feeding people, and our programs are designed to meet the needs in a variety of ways,
from mobile pantries to home deliveries.
Our Programs
Food Recovery
Our food recovery program collects surplus or excess food that would otherwise go to waste and redistributing it to individuals or organizations in need. This work involves rescuing unsold food from grocery stores, restaurants, farms, and food manufacturers and redirecting it to those in need.
FOOD PANTRY
Our food pantry program uses mobile food trucks to go to different neighborhoods throughout our region, delivering high-quality, fresh food to food-insecure people.
MEALS PREPARATION
Our skilled chefs prepare nutritious meals that are delivered to homes, community partners, and families in need.
Community Partnerships
Through our extensive food recovery, food pantry, and meals preparation work, we make it easy for other organizations, faith-based institutions, and local companies reach food-insecure communities.
2023 was another year of growth.
783k
total Meals provided in 2023
This is a combined total of individual and family-style meals prepared in our kitchen, and in partnership with restaurants, culinary programs and caterers, along with the equivalent number of meals provided through our pantry partners.
38+
Years Serving our communities
For the first 20 years, we operated as part of a church outreach program, but in the 10 years since, as an independent 501(c)3 serving Port Chester and the surrounding communities.
308k
Number of People Impacted in 2023
By partnering with other agencies in Port Chester, including The Salvation Army and The Carver Center, and now additional agencies throughout Westchester County, we have managed to reach many more people in need, most multiple times a month during the pandemic and now weekly.
