When we say we are outside every single day serving this community — we mean it.

In just ONE YEAR… with only 5 staff and 2 volunteers… here’s what happened in the City of Good Neighbors:

📌 980 community members connected to critical services & Health Related Social Needs
(Food, clothing, housing support, P*P linkage, mental health & substance use treatment navigation)

🏠 12 families received rental payment assistance to prevent homelessness

🚌 333 individuals received non-medical transportation
🚏 Over $19,000 in monthly bus passes distributed so people could get to work, appointments, and stability

🥕 21,000+ pounds of food distributed through our Saturday Harvest of Hope giveaways

🍽️ 3,693 community members served
🥘 28,990 meals provided through our food pantry

🎄 300 children received Christmas toys

🦃 1,101 community members received a full Thanksgiving dinner

All of this.
With a team of 7 total humans.

No fluff.
No excuses.
Just work.

This is what happens when people with lived experience lead from the front.
This is what happens when you combine compassion with accountability.
This is what happens when a community refuses to give up on its own.

Buffalo — thank you for trusting us.
Thank you to every partner, donor, volunteer, and supporter who stands with us.

We’re just getting started.
