Volunteer to help local refugees.
Thousands of asylum-seeking families have been settled in Brooklyn, and many are living in hotels nearby. Food is scarce and the local food pantries and soup kitchens are having a hard time meeting the sudden increase in need. CBE is working with a local Mutual Aid group to provide meals in 2 hotels! YOU CAN HELP!
Sign Up Here to:
- Pick up meals from a non-profit in lower Manhattan and deliver them to the shelter in Brooklyn.
- Pick up water and snacks from CBE and bring them to the shelter on 3rd St and Union St. (If you don’t have a car, you can use a car service.) You and your family can then help distribute the meals to shelter residents.
- Or, simply distribute meals at the shelter site! If you sign up for either of the other options you can also distribute at the site!
If all slots are filled for a date you’d like to volunteer, please email bonniekerker@yahoo.com!
