We Are Not Afraid

Step forward with We Are Not Afraid to make a tangible difference in the lives of those facing food insecurity by sponsoring our food pantry for one month. Founded in 1982, our organization has evolved from a modest pantry and soup kitchen into a comprehensive food assistance program, including a client choice food pantry, movie night soup kitchens, a street outreach mobile soup kitchen, and a fellowship program. But we provide more than just meals; we offer guidance through tough times, education for healthier living, and a community built on peer-based, women of color leadership. Your sponsorship will fill our shelves, fuel our outreach, and fortify our mission to not only feed bodies but to nurture spirits, offer hope, and foster community resilience. Join us in creating a space where every meal is a stepping stone towards stability, health, and empowerment, ensuring that no one has to face hardship alone. Your support for just one month can have a lasting impact, providing sustenance and hope to those who need it most.

Urban Youth Collective

Join the Urban Youth Collaborative (UYC) in a pivotal movement to spotlight the urgent need for enhanced mental health resources for youth in our city. As a student-led coalition, UYC is at the forefront of transforming NYC’s public schools into spaces that foster nurturing, inclusivity, and support over punitive measures and the school-to-prison pipeline. Our upcoming event aims to shed light on the critical intersection of mental health and educational environments, advocating for a shift from police presence and punitive discipline in schools to comprehensive mental health support and resources. By sponsoring this event, you're not just contributing to a cause but igniting a city-wide conversation on the importance of mental health advocacy for our youth, aligning with efforts to create safer, more supportive educational spaces. Stand with us in this essential fight to ensure our schools become havens for learning and growth, not fear and criminalization. Your support can help us make a lasting impact on the mental well-being of countless students across NYC, paving the way for a healthier, more equitable future for our youth.
