On August 16, we celebrated a significant milestone with the grand opening of our newest #communityfridge in the Fox Point neighborhood of the Bronx. This location installment was made possible through the generous support of the Maria Grazia Foundation. This community fridge aligns with our mission to provide services and resources that make a difference in New York’s underserved communities. As a testament to our unwavering commitment, this addition will provide Fox Point residents with access to fresh, nutritious food.

Housing is healthcare.
. It’s great to see NYC public hospitals stepping up to help house people in need. Too often, New Yorkers experiencing #homelessness wind up in our city’s emergency rooms, where the cost to help them is sometimes astronomical compared to other countermeasures. Housing is healthcare and this milestone underscores the importance of addressing these vital issues together. Services for the UnderServed https://lnkd.in/grs3gXRc
