Info
A grassroots, volunteer-run 501(c)(3) food pantry founded in 2020 by Jennifer Macksoud during the pandemic, serving 175+ families weekly in Vinegar Hill, Brooklyn. Provides barrier-free food access with no eligibility requirements — neighbors simply show up and receive a numbered ticket. Also maintains the Little Red Food Box, a 24/7 self-service outdoor pantry at the Vinegar Hill Community Garden offering free food and essentials for immediate, anonymous access at any time. Funded by Community Food Connection (NYC HRA) grants, private donations, and monthly food shipments from The Campaign Against Hunger.
