How Some People and Groups Are Welcoming Migrants
All Of It - A podcast by WNYC
There are thousands of new migrants in our area, and many of them lack access to basics such as food and clothing. WNYC reporter Gwynne Hogan will talk about the teachers in Queens who opened a store for free items. Alana Cantillo, VP of Advocacy for the New York Immigration Coalition joins to discuss their food and coat drive tomorrow. Here's what listeners had to share about where they give: Mark from Middlesex, NJ: The Hikers Ball. Doughtee from Inwood: Good Shepherd Church's food pantry. Jessica from the Bronx: Kingsbridge Unidos, looking for bike mechanics, Tweet her @JessWoolfordBx to help. Marie from Brooklyn: peopleinneed.org, Flatbush Friendly Fridge at 499 Rogers Ave (@FlatbushFriendlyFridge on Instagram), Flatbush United Mutual Aid (@FlatbushUnited on Twitter), community fridges around Flatbush. Heather from Huntington: ECLI Vibes, provides support for victims of abuse, assault, and domestic violence. Donations to their food pantry and Volunteer Night the first Wednesday of each month needed.
