Community Update: Food Share Program
We’d like to acknowledge the one week end of our recent Food Share.
Thank you to everyone who came out and to our incredible volunteers who made it possible. 🧡
At this time, the Afro Caribbean Cultural Center Inc and Brooklyn Bridge Initiative will not be continuing food shares. We hope that another agency will soon provide updated information about continued food distributions in the near future.
We also recognize and feel the weight and gravity of the current delay in SNAP/EBT disbursements, and we understand how deeply this impacts families and neighbors across our community, especially before the holidays. Please know that you are not alone; we see you, we care, and we’re working to share resources and information that can help bridge this difficult time.
We remain committed to the well-being of our Brooklyn neighbors and city at large and will continue sharing updates as soon as we receive them.
Attached you will find information on local resources for food pantries, shared by State Representative Geraldo Reyes Jr.
Always check with 211ct.org as well as Waterbury Food Insecurity and Resource Group
With gratitude and solidarity.
