The Community Center of Northern Westchester gave out 398,796 lbs of food to over 2000 families in 2018, including 119,000 lbs. of fresh fruits and vegetables.   37% of those who received food are children.  The Center supports a wide variety of Neighbors in Need, including families with infants and toddlers, the elderly and disabled, and adults and families that need a helping hand.  In addition to food, the Center also offers a wide range of programs that help people become self-sufficient: classes that enhance entrepreneurial skills, certification courses, scholarships, career planning, and much, much more.

Paper grocery bags with a suggested shopping list will be distributed from January  22nd through  January 27th, to be returned no later than February 4th.  For a link to the shopping list, click here.

All contributions to  St. Patrick’s 2019 Feeding Our Neighbors Food Drive during the week of January 28th to February 3rd will allow the Community Center to continue to serve as a pillar of hope and stability for so many of our most vulnerable neighbors.  Please keep an eye out for sales and stock up for the Food Drive.  If you’d like to help collect food or transport the food to the Center, please contact Diane Bamford at  diane.r.bamford@gmail.com.
