Hunger Action Month 

The Pantry is leading the charge for Hunger Action Month (HAM) in Northern Westchester County, joining food banks and food pantries across the County and across the U.S. to raise awareness and take action against food insecurity.

To mobilize support and community engagement, The Pantry is launching a campaign of activities throughout September, including a Food Drive on September 20, shopping partnerships throughout the month, and tables at The Mount Kisco Chamber of Commerce’s Septemberfest and New Castle Day on September 13th.

Community Partnerships

AND

A collaboration to support The Pantry kicking off during Hunger Action Month.

In a yearlong effort to support The Pantry, oHHo and Pizza Girls are teaming up to make a difference, beginning this September during Hunger Action Month. For every Pizza Girl pizza sold at the oHHo Bedford location, 30 cents per pie will be donated directly to The Pantry to help feed local families.

Plus, oHHo customers at the Bedford shop can choose to round up their purchases at the register, with all proceeds supporting our mission for one year.

  • ALL OF SEPTEMBER
