Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Meals for Unity is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to uplift those in need through community and food. As a result of COVID-19, the AAPI community in NYC witnessed a surge in social disparities, including violence, poverty, and food insecurity. What started as a one-time event to feed and aid our neighbors has evolved into Meals for Unity. Our pillars are as follows: 1. Provide meals to vulnerable communities 2. Amplify & support local food businesses 3. Spread awareness & promote community action
