On behalf of our Board, staff, and communities, we thank WellMet for its grant to The Campaign Against Hunger. We are deeply grateful that you have come alongside us to help New Yorkers struggling with food insecurity during this very difficult time.
Fighting hunger is at the core of what we do at TCAH. Food insecurity continues to be a major challenge for many New Yorkers, affecting over 2.6 million individuals including children and seniors throughout the city.
The once small basement pantry has become the SuperPantry emporium it is today. We now offer hundreds of nutrition education classes, workshops, and cooking demonstrations each year for our clients. The Green Teens internship program has played an integral role in the lives of young adults in Brooklyn and Far Rockaway. And lastly, we now offer a suite of social services, including SNAP registration, health insurance enrollment, tax filing preparation, and much more.
