FeedMore WNY

We love this creative partnership! Thanks Buffalo Open Coffee Club for helping to spread awareness and raise funds to fight food insecurity!

Thank you so much for helping us nourish our neighbors this holiday season!

Our friends at Microsoft recently took the time to tour our commissary and help deliver meals to neighbors who rely on our home-delivered meals program! As a part of their Give Month, #Microsoft donated $25 for every #volunteer hour per employee!

One week ago we gathered with community partners at the future home of FeedMore WNY for our #groundbreaking ceremony! This new headquarters will address our current critical capacity constraints and enable us to better serve community members and partner agencies throughout Erie, Niagara, Cattaraugus and Chautauqua counties. During the ceremony, Reverend Mark Blue with Second Baptist Church of Lackawanna and Brandi L. Haynes with CAO of WNY – two of our hunger-relief partner agencies – shared testimonies of the growing need for food assistance among the neighborhoods they serve and how FeedMore WNY's new campus will further strengthen our ability to work together to alleviate food insecurity in the region. We are grateful to fight hunger alongside Reverend Blue, Brandi and our nearly 400 hunger-relief partners throughout our service area. Learn more about our new campus: https://lnkd.in/e4F3ryd3

Our 197,700-square-foot headquarters will include a larger warehouse and commercial kitchen, more classroom space for our RISE workforce development program, additional space to grow fresh produce and much more in order to alleviate food insecurity in Western New York for generations to come.
