Consider coordinating a collection or a drive for us.
We are committed to continue providing services within and to our communities. We have remained open for all crisis and basic need services and programs, while reducing group activities and programming to protect the community we serve and our workforce. We have continued to reach out to the families and individuals who are served by our multiple clinical, counseling, and case management programs.
Our two Emergency Food Pantries are designated by the NY State Department of Health Hunger Prevention Nutrition Assistance Program in Arbor Hill and the South End. As such, we are obligated to meet the needs of all who seek assistance, even those outside our catchment area. We are the only five day a week full day food pantries in Albany. We are receiving about double (sometimes triple) the volume of patrons with the advent of COVID-19. In addition, we are also home delivering foodstuffs for the first time in our history.
We can work directly with volunteers to do a collection for us based on our current needs.
Examples could be diapers, baby formula, personal hygiene supplies, cleaning supplies, toiletry items, Walmart gift cards, etc. It could be as simple as asking friends and neighbors to leave items on your front porch, and then a volunteer can deliver the items they collect.
Upon completion, you can drop off the boxes to 15 Trinity Place, Albany, NY 12202 c/o Development Office. Call 518-449-5155 x 134 to arrange for a contact free pick up or you may email supporttrinity@ta-cr.org to inform the agency that the items will be mailed.
Make sure to please reach out to supporttrinity@ta-cr.org before starting your drive to coordinate all logistics.
