2025 NYC Basket Brigade - Westchester

NYC Basket Brigade 2025: Feed Families, Meet Amazing People 🧡

Join NYC's most heartwarming volunteer tradition!

Since 1996, thousands of volunteers have gathered to do something incredible together: feed families in need across NYC and Westchester. We've served over 1.5 million meals, and every single one happened because people like you showed up.

This isn't just volunteering. it's community in action.

You'll work alongside neighbors, make new friends, share laughs while packing food, and leave knowing you made a real difference. Whether you're new to NYC or a longtime resident, you'll feel the magic of what happens when strangers become a team with one mission: make sure no family goes hungry this Thanksgiving.

WHO WE ARE:

We're an all-volunteer, 501(c)3 nonprofit with basically zero overhead. Since 1996, we've been that scrappy group of New Yorkers who refuse to let our neighbors go hungry during the holidays. No corporate sponsors, no big headquarters, just people who care, getting stuff done.

"Together Everyone Achieves More" isn't just our motto. it's how we roll.
