If you live in NYC you may want to consider attending the Robin Hood Food for Good event to help feed New Yorkers in need. Through Robin Hood’s partnership with FreshDirect, a $50 donation provides a family of eight with a turkey and all the fixings. Your donation also includes entrance to this event, an open bar and entertainment. So not only will you get to go to a good party, you’ll also do good by helping those in need. And if you don’t live in NYC or can’t attend the event, you can still help feed a family by donating online.
Last year, Robin Hood invested $4.3 million in soup kitchens and food pantries in New York City and now, in this recession, the need is even greater. At Robin Hood, 100% of your donation goes directly to programs helping poor New Yorkers and every dollar you give will be matched dollar for dollar thanks to a matching grant. Dollar for dollar! That’s amazing.
