Proud to support @westharlemgroup providing quality food to residents of Fred Samuels Houses and the #harlem community. Families were able to choose from lobster tails to crab legs and more to take home to ensure a special Mother’s Day.
I am happy to inform all of the people living their Suburban Lifestyle Dream that you will no longer be bothered or financially hurt by having low income housing built in your neighborhood...
We distributed healthy, fresh food to 1,000 neighbors today at my district office in West Harlem. Thanks to @WestHarlemGroup & @wscah for making it possible, and to @StreetCornerRes for helping out.
Sadly, demand for food is increasing steadily. People are really hurting.
Our Community Response Hub Partner, @WestHarlemGroup, knows that hunger is about more than just a lack of food. Their approach focuses on affordable housing, healthy food access, financial literacy, and social services. (1/3)
“Our pantry went from 3 days a week to 5 days a week, and we extended our hours. The team on the ground at the pantry is small. It’s just hard in general. However, we are not restricting access to anyone.” (3/3)

We say THANK YOU to all who have served on behalf of the United States of America. To our fallen heroes we express our gratitude and respect for your dedication.
