About
The River Fund New York, Inc. is a community based organization dedicated to the task of fighting poverty and rebuilding human dignity in multiple New York City communities. This is accomplished initially by ensuring that we promptly address the challenge of food insufficiency for every household that comes to us for help. As a result of our comprehensive approach to nutrition going beyond Emergency Food Assistance to address Nutrition Education, Income Support, Vitamin Distribution, Infant and Senior Specific Foods, plus a wide range of other diet related efforts we have become one of the leading suppliers of groceries to families in need living in a 100 zip code area of New York City's five boroughs.
