Our Agencies

Founded by a Sister of Charity and a Society of Jesus priest in 1982 with the simple goal of making soup for the hungry, POTS has grown into an award winning multiservice agency in the Bronx that nourishes the basic needs and hunger of all who come through its doors.

It serves as a “one-stop shop” with a wide array of assistance programs under one roof designed to move its guests from crises to stability and self-sufficiency.

Services include a community dining room with the look and feel of a local diner. This promotes the self- worth of the hungry and homeless. Services also include a homeless prevention and transitional residence program, a food pantry, a clothing program, haircuts, health care, mail service, family club, case management services and a legal clinic.
