Bronx Communities Are Long Overdue
Demand for Bronx Eats programming continues to grow. Schools and families are asking for more frequent distributions, more demos, and more consistent support—and we don’t currently have the funding to meet that need.
Bronx Eats is ready to expand.
We just need more help.
We see it every day: when people have access to nourishing food and the tools to prepare it, everything shifts. Energy improves. Confidence grows. Families feel supported rather than judged. Possibility opens up.
Addressing food insecurity requires more than food alone—it requires education, access, dignity, and trust.

"This demo was eye-opening. I never thought healthy, plant-based meals could taste this good—or be this easy to make by myself."
