Our New York team recently hosted our fifth annual Kekst Gives Day event, where we had the opportunity to volunteer at the Food Bank For New York City's warehouse in the Bronx, which provides essential food supplies for New Yorkers in need. 🍎📦 As the largest volunteer group the Food Bank in NYC has ever had, we assembled nearly 900 care packages filled with pantry staples for seniors across the five boroughs. We are grateful to have contributed to such a vital cause. A big thank you to all our colleagues who participated and to the Food Bank for NYC for their outstanding work in the city we call home!
