Tech:NYC Foundation’s Thanksgiving Impact: Supporting New Yorkers in Need

This Thanksgiving, the Tech:NYC Foundation expanded its support for vulnerable New Yorkers and families in need, partnering with local nonprofits to distribute food and other essential resources. With the backing of AT&T, Grubhub, Instacart, Salesforce, and Lyft, and through the dedicated efforts of our nonprofit partners, we worked to combat food insecurity across all five boroughs.

Making a Difference Together

• We contributed to more than 3,000+ meals distributed to families across the city, helping ensure no table was left empty during this season of gratitude.

• In a new partnership with the Public Housing Community Fund, we supported the distribution of 1,500 turkeys to NYCHA residents at locations like the Nostrand, Castle Hill, and Manhattanville Houses, making a meaningful impact in communities where access to resources is often limited.

Giving Back Beyond Thanksgiving

The Thanksgiving season reminds us of the power of community and collaboration. As we celebrate Giving Tuesday, we encourage our members and supporters to join us in giving back. Consider supporting these incredible nonprofit partners who work tirelessly year-round to serve New Yorkers.
