Trinity's Services And Food for the Homeless

Trinity's Services And Food for the Homeless We operate a soup kitchen and food pantry, five days a week, year round.

Trinity's Services And Food for the Homeless (or SAFH, pronounced "safe") started out as a response to the homeless living in and around Tompkins Square Park almost 35 years ago.

"University systems have long been promoted as the most reliable path to upward mobility and economic security.

Yet for a growing number of students, that promise is part of a troubling paradox: the act of seeking a degree requires a harrowing trade-off between paying for schooling and securing the eating. The result is a lack of physical and economic access to enough safe and nutritious food for a healthy and active life. It is a pervasive crisis of food insecurity,

Today, nearly nine in 10 United States campuses operate food pantries or “basic need hubs,” serving thousands of students each semester."

Read about our College Student Pantry in this article about food insecurity among college aged students.

College students must pay for housing, books and course fees. For many, that leaves little extra for meals. Some campuses are working to fill that need.

So happy to welcome volunteers from to our soup kitchen today where we served 145 hot meals in one hour!

Your favorite night is back!! Come join us Wednesday Dec 10th at 6:30pm for a festive night of singing your favorite Christmas carols while sipping on delicious cocktails and holiday mocktails!
❤️
This community event raises money for our soup kitchen and food pantries! It has a suggested donation of $40, but is "pay what you can". Meaning, if you are unable to pay the suggested price, select a donation amount that works for you!! We want you to sing with us!
❤️
Our musicians will lead us all in various Christmas carols (music and lyric books are included in your admission!) and a bar will provide you with the courage to sing out. This is a family-friendly event. People of all ages and singing abilities are welcome.
❤️
We will provide some beverages (both for adults and kids) and some light holiday treats, all of which is included in your donation to our soup kitchen and food pantry programs! You're welcome to BYO if you want something specific! RESERVE A TICKET HERE: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/cocktails-carols-a-christmas-sing-a-long-tickets-1819987223779?aff=Instagram

We are so grateful to everyone who was able to come out and support us at our Garden Party this year! It's been a year of uncertainty, and we am so grateful that we can rely on friends like you to help us continue our mission of fighting food insecurity.

We are back already doing what we do, which is providing food to New Yorkers with dignity and grace.

A big shout out to our board and local sponsors, please visit them when you're able, Veselka (9th St and 2nd Ave), Brix Wine Shop (Ave B and 11th Street), and Cafe Mogador (St. Marks and 1st Ave), and Max Stampa-Brown and Stacey Juliano for supplying cocktails!

If you were interested in a our community cookbook, you can purchase one at evcookbook.com.

Thank you

We serve lunch Monday-Friday from 11am-12pm. We average 150-200, but can sometimes see up to 300+! It’s a lot of plates to distribute in one hour, so we are thankful to our staff and volunteers for all of their hard work to make the impossible happen each and every day.
