    • Quotes From Our Co-Chairs

    It's extremely important to me to give my time and resources in support of my community, and City Harvest does incredible work helping feed hungry New Yorkers every year. I am proud to have been a Generation Harvest member since 2008 and now the Co-Chair.
    Lisa Hurwich, Co-Chair

    After volunteering with City Harvest for several years, I saw firsthand how effective its programs are at not only feeding hungry New Yorkers, but also educating people about how to feed themselves better and live healthier lives. I joined Generation Harvest so I could get involved on the fundraising side, spread the word about what City Harvest does, and help sustain and grow its phenomenal efforts.
    Alissa Dicker Schrieber, Co-Chair

    What We're Up To

    On November 13, 2010, Generation Harvest members volunteered at the Melrose Mobile Market, and helped distribute over 20,000 pounds of food. The group had a great day and was thrilled to help City Harvest feed fellow New Yorkers.
