Neighbors Together is a soup kitchen and social service center committed to ending hunger and poverty in Brooklyn. In response to COVID-19, Neighbors Together switched to a grab-and-go model, and on Wednesday they were able to distribute 200 meals in just two hours. As the crisis continues, more people will be in need of the emergency services offered by Neighbors Together and they need donations now more than ever. Please consider giving at https://neighborstogether.org/help/.
