Fort Greene Fresh Pantry distribute food every Saturday morning (9:15am-12:45pm) to lower income residents in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. A number of our pantry recipients are native Mandarin/Cantonese speakers and speak little to no English. We'd love to have a handful of English-Mandarin/Cantonese interpreters on hand to help residents sign up for our program, communicate what food is available, and let them know if any changes are coming. We would also love to provide a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere. Please get in touch for details on how to sign up.
