Feeding Our Neighbors in NYC, Long Island and Connecticut

About the National Supermarket Association 

Catholic Charities is happy to partner with the National Supermarket Association (NSA) on our annual Feeding Our Neighbors Campaign to help raise 2 million meals. NSACares is an initiative of the National Supermarket Association, designed to partner with charitable organizations in the different communities served by their members. They have a longstanding tradition of giving back to the community. Through the promise of NSACares, each year, they reaffirm their commitment to strengthening their corporate social responsibility with the many communities served by their members.

 

Last fall NSA Cares volunteered at our food hub in the Bronx.

 

During the month of January, 48 supermarkets within New York City, Connecticut and Long Island will be participating in the Feeding Our Neighbors campaign. Shoppers of these locations can make non-perishable food or cash donations at checkout.

Day 2 in Honduras: We first met with a center that welcomes and orients migrants coming in from the US. The people who work at the center provide medical care and provide kits to migrants that include toothbrushes, toothpaste and razors for men. Many of these migrants are denied brushing their teeth for weeks sometimes. Later in the day we met with participants of Youth Pathways, a program that helps young people with leadership skills and skills that will help them enter the workforce. Then we met with a group of union leaders and we learned about the different situations they face in fighting for worker's rights, but also when gang violence affect coworkers.
