Sarcasm alert, but in all seriousness, we really do owe our staff a much bigger thank you than we give often enough.
Every day, the Choice of New York team shows up with patience, compassion, persistence, and an incredible ability to keep going even when the systems our clients are navigating are anything but simple. So much of their work happens behind the scenes, but it has a real and lasting impact.
Our staff helps community members access food, clothing, training opportunities, benefits, and other vital resources. They coordinate with community partners, assist with food pantry distribution, help connect clients with donations and supportive services, follow up on paperwork, untangle confusing bureaucracy, and work hard to make sure people do not have to face these challenges alone.
This work takes heart. It takes problem-solving. It takes emotional energy, flexibility, dedication, and a willingness to keep showing up for others even on the most complicated days. Our staff gives so much of themselves to this work, and we are deeply grateful for all they do to help support the people and families in our community.
If you would like to help us show that appreciation in a meaningful way, please consider making a donation through the link in our bio. Every donation helps us continue providing food, resources, support, and care to community members in need.
And if you know someone in community support work, this is your reminder that they deserve some extra love, too.
