2020 New York Coronavirus Response and Recovery Fund

Citymeals on Wheels

Citymeals is working with partners across the five boroughs, including the New York City Department for the Aging, to support the City’s response to the coronavirus. As the designated emergency responder for the city’s seniors, they are working to ensure older New Yorkers have nourishing meals during this public health crisis. The city’s senior centers are now closed; however, home-delivered meal programs continue at this time. These meals are essential for the homebound elderly, many of whom live on just one meal a day. They are practicing social distancing and have directed all volunteers with their Friendly Visiting program to connect with meal recipients over the phone to reduce possible transmission of the virus.

Callen-Lorde Community Health center

Callen-Lorde Community Health Center provides sensitive, quality health care and related services targeted to New York's LGBTQ communities — in all their diversity — regardless of ability to pay. To further this mission, Callen-Lorde promotes health education and wellness and advocates for LGBTQ health issues.
