NY Common Pantry receives critical funds from New York City FC for South Bronx residents during COVID19

New York City Football Club (NYCFC) will donate 100,000 meals to South Bronx residents through NY Common Pantry during this critical time of the COVID-19 outbreak in New York City.

NY Common Pantry already provides lifesaving meals and other resources for over 81,000 local Bronx residents at their Choice Pantry Bronx (CPBx) location at Freeman Street and Hoe Avenue. This new six-figure contribution from NYCFC, who plays home matches in the South Bronx, will further NY Common Pantry’s work providing critical resources and the delivery of even more vital meals to the South Bronx community.

With the largest community-based food pantry in the City, and with a particular focus on the local homeless population, NY Common Pantry’s work delivering nutritious food to New Yorkers in-need is critical, now more than ever.
