2017-2020 POTS: Community Dining (Bronx)

Do you want to help feed the hungry?
Part Of The Solution (POTS) is located in the Bronx, and is between the Botanical Gardens and Fordham Metro North stops. POTS is also located off the B/D/4 subway lines at the Kingsbridge Road stations.
Every day POTS serves around 500 free healthy lunches to all, seven days a week. Help us prepare these meals and serve these meals to hungry New Yorkers.
We are looking for volunteers to help with: (1) Morning Meal Prep and (2) Lunch Service.

(1) Morning Meal Prep

POTS’ mosaic of services, big and small, simple and complex, come together in its "one-stop shop" model. Offering a wide array of support under one roof, staff and services work in concert to address diverse and complex needs. When POTS does not directly provide a needed service, staff link clients with peer organizations to ensure every individual receives the help he or she needs. Anyone who turns to POTS in crisis will leave with help, hope and a chance at improved stability. Services include: community dining room, food pantry, mail services, showers, barbershop, clothing room, legal clinic, case management, and more!
