New York Common Pantry is New York City's largest community-based food pantry that focuses on under-served communities throughout NYC. We offer our services through several programs. Our Choice Pantry Program is designed to meet the needs of our families by providing culturally-appropriate and nutritiously-balanced food. This model empowers our Pantry members by encouraging them to select the food they would like to receive. Groceries are distributed as follows: • East Harlem Location (8 E 109th Street, NYC): every Wednesday through Saturday, from 10am - 2:30pm • Bronx Location (1290 Hoe Avenue): every Thursday and Friday, 10am - 2:00pm, and Saturday, 10am - 2:00pm Currently the Hot Meals program at our East Harlem location serves one, to-go meal daily, Monday through Friday, at 2:30 pm. Brown Bag lunches are served on weekends and holidays, from 4:00 – 5:00 pm. Project Dignity’s array of services is designed to meet the most basic needs of our homeless visitors – food, hygiene services and mail service – as well as the larger, more challenging issues they face: stable housing and access to public benefits. Help 365 helps our guests achieve stability and access to entitled benefits, such as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and Social Security Supplemental Income. It also provides assistance with accessing other appropriate resources to prevent families from being evicted from their homes and by making employment referrals. Nourish, our Senior Nutrition Program, aims to improve the health of low-income individuals who are 60+ years old by providing nutritious food choices from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). Nourish serves 16,000+ eligible seniors/month at 90+ sites located in Manhattan, Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn, and lower Westchester County. Live Healthy! encourages participants to embrace healthy eating, active living, resiliency skills, and social support to improve overall quality of life.
