October 4, 2024Reaching Out Community Services is Closing Hopefully, Moving to New Place on 18th Ave.
Reaching Out Community Services announced that it will be closing the New Utrecht food pantry by November.
This pantry received less funding.
Tom Neve, the head of Reaching Out wants to open on 18th Avenue, but needs help. Make a donation to Reaching Out.
Reaching Out Community Services has been open for seventeen years in Brooklyn. Currently, RCS serves 13,000 families. During the pandemic, they served even more! If you want to see a well run organization, stand outside RCS and see how people are served.
After redistricting, this area in Brooklyn, where Reaching Out Food Pantry is located is represented by NYC Council Representative, Alexa Aviles.
I don’t think Aviles understood how many people will be affected by not funding this organization.
Councilman Justin Brannan funded this organization in 2024, but did not put anything towards it for 2025. (See here) Families from different zip codes use this pantry as it is open Monday to Friday 10:00 am – 5:00 pm, while other pantries are open one day a week for a few hours.
Reaching Out Community Services should not be in this position. NYC politicians should have offered to help Neve move to 18th Avenue to make sure this organization continues its good work of helping Brooklynites in need.
