Organization Details
we serve from 130 to 173 people in our community needed food each Friday from 10-12.
Our focus for this community service is not only to give food out but to build relationships with those who come every week.
While we are receiving grant support for food, we are in need of more funds as the numbers of people who must rely on our help is steadily on the increase while funding is going down substantially.
We presently have around 30 volunteers who help serve our community much needed food each week. I prepare a monthly schedule of when they are to be at the pantry and given then by the last Friday of each month for the next month..
The New York School of Urban Ministry began in 1984 by a minister of a bible school in upstate NY who felt that we ought to stand beside the local churches in the city of New York and to be an encouragement to them.
While we are not a regular school as one would suppose from its name, we have churches from all over the U.S.A who come to us on a "mission trip" from their church.
while here, we take them all over the city to various churches who would invite us to come and be apart of their ministry needs.
