West Side Campaign Against Hunger (WSCAH) is excited to host our fourth annual spring block party - a fun filled day of community impact. Join us on Sunday, June 1st from 12:00 - 4:00 pm.
WSCAH CEO & Executive Director Greg Silverman and WSCAH Board Director Martina Santos in conversation with the amazing hosts of Good Day New York, Tashanae Whitlow and Dan Bowens, highlighting WSCAH's work in the fight against food insecurity in NYC.
Thanks to our collective advocacy efforts across the emergency feeding network, funding for the Community Food Connection Program (CFC) will no longer be cut in half under the budget deal reached by NYC Mayor Eric Adams and the city council a few weeks ago. The $112 billion budget for this fiscal year will maintain full funding of CFC at roughly $57 million for the program, that supports 500 emergency food providers across the city. This will ensure that the more than one million New Yorkers facing food insecurity can continue to feed themselves and their families.
