📸 Snapshots from our Jackson Heights food pantry yesterday!

Our food pantries started from an urgent need during the pandemic, and we continue to operate with that community-centered rapid response. In April, we launched our Jackson Heights food pantry because our neighbors lost access to their SNAP benefits and needed immediate help. We're able to respond that way because of partners like Neighborworks, which provides the critical resources and support to help AAFE meet the moment when the community needs us. We were proud to celebrate NeighborWorks Week (May 23-June 7) along with 250 community development organizations nationwide. Through our longstanding partnership, we’re creating opportunities, strengthening communities and expanding access to safe, affordable housing.

At our pantry this week, we were proud to acknowledge Keith Getter for his 28 years of service at NeighborWorks. Our working relationship with Keith goes back to the 1980s, when we teamed up to advocate for the Chinatown community in the landmark lawsuit, AAFE v. Koch. All of us at AAFE are grateful to Keith for the important role he has played in helping advance a more equitable city. 🌟

Yesterday, our immigration team joined the RISE Rally at City Hall to advocate for funding that directly supports immigrant and AAPI New Yorkers. RISE is a dedicated funding pool for AAPI organizations doing immigration work. Despite the heat, community leaders showed up to make sure City Council hears what's at stake for our communities. 📣

🏀 KNICKS IN 5! 📣

We're looking back at that time during Lunar New Year that our AAFE Youth students were featured on the Jumbotron at the Knicks game, and our student Alex got his hat signed by Jalen Brunson! Thank you again to Madison Square Garden for taking our students on a private tour with career talks from MSG employees, and letting us sit courtside during warm-ups!

We'll be cheering on the New York Knicks tonight 🌟

When communities need help, they know they can turn to AAFE. Whether they’re struggling to find affordable housing, pay for food, access medical care or start a small business — we are there. While most people don’t know it, one reason AAFE can do this important work is through our partnership with NeighborWorks America — a nationwide network which supports community development organizations like AAFE. This week we have been celebrating NeighborWorks Week. And the celebration will continue next week when we welcome NeighborWorks at our Jackson Heights food pantry. Our pantries, now in four locations, and so many other programs are possible thanks to the organizational stability NeighborWorks enables.
