NEW ACCESS PROCEDURES: In order to maintain the safety of our Food Bank families, reduce any possible spread, and to ensure that we can provide everyone with the items they need during our current crisis and meet the increased demand, we have changed the code and access procedures. We will be preparing packages with all the items from the Foodbank and tailor it to your family size. Please contact your Shaliach or FoodBank liaison to schedule a time that is convenient for you, if you do not have a Shaliach or liaison, or if you prefer, please call (917)-444-0780, you may block your number and call anonymously to schedule a time. Pickup will be scheduled at your convenience and will maintain your privacy. Please remember to mention your family size. If you have special requests, we will try our best to accommodate them. If there are items you do not need from the prepared package you will be able to leave them behind for another family. Please note items will be arriving at different times and you may need to schedule multiple pick-ups. The foodbank is here for you as usual and will provide as best we can. Please be patient and we thank you very much for your understanding and cooperation. We wish you and your families great health and chag sameach.
