Food Bank for New York City: February Volunteer Opportunity

Join us on Monday, Feburary 2nd for our first volunteer effort of 2026! In coordination with the AICP East Board, we will be helping prepare and serve dinner at the Food Bank for New York City's Community Pantry in Harlem. This pantry is a place for New Yorkers without access to food to come get a hot meal and socialize.

Tasks during the shift may include helping prep/distribute hot meals, assisting with pantry clean-up at end of the shift, and assisting with other pantry tasks, like sorting donations, as needed.  The shift will run from 3:30pm to 6:30pm. Please email Tom Yacovone at tomy@aicp.com if you would like to volunteer.

The Food Bank for New York City has been helping feed New Yorkers since 1983. With a network of around 1,200 food providers, they can be found in every corner of all five boroughs. The approximately 8,000 yearly volunteers that serve the food bank are integral to making sure their fellow New Yorkers in need have food on their plates.
