La Pequeña Despensa (The Little Pantry)
We are just people helping people. We are from Jackson Heights, Corona, East Elmhurst, Woodside, and Astoria.
We are neighbors, families, friends. We are guidance counsellors, teachers, community activists, and civil servants. We are just people who came together understanding that our community is facing extreme anxiety as the pandemic endures.
We began with a few families, a few phone calls, and 50 bags packed with flour, rice, sugar, beans...the necessities ensuring mealtime would be a source of comfort for the body and a balm to the soul. With a bit more outreach and word of mouth, we were able to raise $3000.00 allowing us to distribute 300 bags of groceries and other essentials to 100 families.
La Pequeña Despensa: small things mean so much, small things make a difference. To learn more, please visit:
