Last year, we served almost 10.2 million meals. Through an array of programs that we offer, we look to establish long-term stability for those we serve.


The Nourish program is a Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) that aims to increase health in individuals who are 60 years or older and have low incomes by providing nutritious food choices provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. NYCP is one of the four agencies statewide contracted to run this program, which allows seniors to receive food on a monthly basis. Food packages include a variety of foods. Nourish will serve up to 120 partner sites to expand food and nutrition services for low-income seniors living in Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, and the Bronx.

  • Ensure that the distribution space is properly set up before the program starts operations, including working with Site Coordinators to ensure the room is set up for pantry distribution.

  • Collaborate with volunteers who assist with the distribution to ensure accurate inventory control.

  • Assist with other maintenance and program operations or other duties as assigned by the Warehouse Operations Manager.
