Monthly Giving Community

Did you know you can support the pantry with a monthly donation of any amount? It’s one of the easiest, most impactful ways to help neighbors all year long. Many people don’t realize they can set it up—and that even $5 or $10 a month truly matters. 

​​

Here’s why steady support is so important right now:

​

• The Regional Food Bank distributed 53.3 million pounds of food in 2025, one of the highest totals in its history—even after losing 7 million pounds in federal cuts.

• Local pantries are seeing record numbers. One pantry nearby served 4,247 people in just six months, a 34% increase over last year and four times the number from 2023.

• Many guests are visiting weekly, showing that food insecurity isn’t temporary—it’s ongoing.

• Grocery prices rose 3.1% in 2025 and are expected to rise another 2.9% in 2026, while wages are barely keeping pace.

• Changes to SNAP rules mean thousands of New Yorkers have already lost benefits, with millions more expected to lose access nationwide.

 

All of this means more families are turning to community pantries like ours—and monthly donors help us keep shelves full, week after week. So, if you’ve ever wondered how to make a meaningful difference, becoming a monthly donor is one of the simplest ways. It’s automatic, flexible, and helps us plan ahead so no neighbor misses a meal.
