Charity Spotlight - Food Bank For New York City

Quick spotlight on a group that’s been a lifeline for New Yorkers facing hunger for decades.

What is Food Bank For New York City?

Food Bank For New York City is the city’s largest hunger relief organization, moving food through a network of hundreds of pantries and community partners across all five boroughs and pairing it with nutrition education and financial empowerment programs.

Why I like recommending them

• Local and high‑impact. Directly serves New Yorkers where they live, shop, and learn.
• More than a meal. Food plus tools — budgeting help, benefits access, and education.
