Last Updated: Wed 14 Dec 2011

New York Pass made a donation of $14,632 to City Harvest today, the world’s first food rescue organization, dedicated to feeding the city's hungry men, women, and children. The donation, collected from a portion of online sales throughout the month of November, will help City Harvest feed over 50,000 hungry New Yorkers this holiday season.

“With the holiday season drawing so many visitors to our website and to purchase passes, we realized that we could not only make a significant donation to City Harvest, but that we could also help to educate and inspire others to share their blessings,” said Ken Barrows, Vice President, New York Pass.

“The need for food is definitely higher compared to that of recent years,” says Jilly Stephens, executive director of City Harvest. “Agencies that receive food from us have reported an average increase of 25% in demand across all five boroughs in the city. So a donation like this is very much appreciated, and will help us feed many hungry families through the holiday season.”

New York Pass is proud to be able to donate to such a great organization! You can help too by going to www.cityharvest.org and donating today!
