Did You Know?
The Bronx has the highest rate of food insecurity in the state.
According to a New York State Department of Health report, 24.9 % of adults in New York State reported experiencing food insecurity. In the Bronx, the rate was much higher, with 39% of Bronx residents reporting having limited or uncertain access to adequate food due to limited economic resources. Adults who experience food insecurity are also more likely to develop chronic diseases.

“The BronxWorks pantry is important because I can feed my family. I retired right at the beginning of the pandemic and this was, and still is, a lifeline to me and this community.” -Elizabeth A., BronxWorks Participant
“I can’t work, so given the pantry is free, it’s a big help. We get fruits, vegetables, eggs, bread, chicken or fish…it’s such a great selection!” -Mary A., BronxWorks Participant
Access to fresh and healthy food is a critical issue affecting the overall health and wellbeing of the borough. One of the pillars of the BronxWorks mission is to feed our Bronx neighbors to build a stronger community. BronxWorks has several programs that address food insecurity in the borough, including food pantries, farm stands, nutrition education, and more.
