2020 has been quite a #frightening year for all of us, but for others it's created so much MORE uncertainty for where a meal will come from. Because of the funds we have raised thus in 2020 and the generosity of kind big hearts who have donated directly - we have so far been able to send $1,000 directly to the following small non-profits dedicated to helping address the spike in hunger during this crisis: Syracuse Northeast Community Cupboard (Syracuse, NY) Lowville Food Pan...try (Lowville, NY) Open Door Mission (Owego, NY) Rome Lions Club (Rome, NY) Carthage Food Pantry (Carthage, NY) Calvary Food Pantry (Auburn, NY) Sullivan Food Cupboard (Chittenango, NY) Erin's Angels (Phoenix, NY) Pulaski Food Cupboard (Pulaski, NY) If your a small non-profit and would like to apply for emergency grant funding, please contact me directly for more information - Christina Cole Executive Director [email protected] See more

The need continues... area food banks are dramatically depleted. Please consider giving... https://www.musicforthemission.org. We're distributing funds immediately to those organizations most in need. Here's one example of the impact your donations can have... a True Story from Binghamton:

Music for the Mission and founding partner Joe Stanley of Stanley Law team up with CHOW and Townsquare Media in Binghamton for the annual Food-A-Bago... tons of food collected for those most in need in the surrounding communities. To donate visit https://www.MusicfortheMission.org
