Mutual Aid

November unfolds as federal support continues to lag, leaving 2.93 million SNAP beneficiaries across New York struggling with worsening food insecurity. The need for programs, resources, and volunteers to make sure our neighbors and community have access to food and resources as we head into the winter months is huge.

We will use this space to amplify local mutual aid organizations in order to connect folks to resources and opportunities to get involved.

Looking for support? We can help point you in the right direction.
