Our story
We are a group of volunteers working to support our friends, family, and partners on the frontline. We began hearing stories of hospital workers not having the time to get safe food when the COVID-19 outbreak started in Brooklyn. We wanted to show our support for these workers fighting for our loved ones by giving them nutritious, safe food. The response has been overwhelmingly positive, and many workers reported the meals we provide have been the highlight of their day. These meals give the healthcare workers an opportunity to pause and eat together, bringing a sense of normalcy in these stressful times. As we were delivering meals to healthcare workers, we realized hunger went far beyond the hospital. In order to also help those experiencing food insecurity, we have partnered with the Chickweed Alliance (501(c)(3)) as our fiscal sponsor.
Healthcare workers
Healthcare workers are working extremely long hours in high-pressure environments and have difficulty accessing safe, healthy meals, compromising their immunity. Our locally owned restaurants are struggling to survive. They’re losing business and having to make tough decisions. These are the people who feed and care for us.
Food security
With the rising economics effects of the COVID-19 outbreak taking hold, we noticed increasing food-insecurity in Brooklyn. In late April, we will begin delivering meals to the food-insecure. With your help, we can help tackle one of the worst effects of the COVID-19 crisis - people struggling to acquire food.
Will you help us?
Supply Drop needs your help in supporting them. What we’re doing is simple: We’re raising money to pay restaurants for meals and then delivering to healthcare workers and the food-insecure. Our goal is to deliver safe, healthy meals to those in need and provide support to the local restaurants that are essential to our community.
Here's how it works:
1) You donate money to support the list of partner restaurants (Honey's in Bushwick and the Rucola/rhodora/June group)
2) We reach our donation goal and purchase a large regular order of meals ($750 = 50 meals + hydrating drink)
3) Meals are delivered to Brooklyn’s high-need areas (e.g. Maimonides Medical Center and local food banks)
All money donated goes to restaurants to feed people working in hospitals.
