Repack To Give Back

Your Corporate Group Can Help Feed NYC this Holiday Season

Your company can step in to make a direct impact in New York City. From November 6–December 18, our annual Repack to Give Back campaign brings together corporate volunteer groups from across the city to fight hunger during the holidays.

Right now, 50% of all working-age households in New York City cannot afford the basic cost of living, including essentials like food, rent, and utilities. The need for food assistance across the five boroughs is at the highest level on record according to City Harvest’s analysis of FeedNYC data. During the holiday season, we know that for so many families and individuals across our city, budgets are strained even further.

  • Mobile Markets®

    Distribute nutritious food directly to neighbors in need at our Mobile Markets across the five boroughs.

  • Mesh Bag Project

    Assemble mesh bags that will be used to pack fresh produce which is distributed to families throughout the city.
