Dozens of nonprofits joined forces today to help Hudson Valley residents struggling with food insecurity due to the pandemic.

Volunteers from Feeding Westchester assisted with deliveries and distributing food outside of the Salvation Army in Tarrytown.

Many community members expressed feeling grateful for the organizations' assistance.

“This helps 100%, without a doubt,” said Richard Lewis, of Mount Vernon. “It’s a big help not just for me, but the entire community.”

Since the pandemic, the Salvation Army of Greater New York says it has served more than 17 million meals to people in need.
