Thru the lens: WinnResidential NYC team volunteers at Stapleton Housing Projects in Staten Island

August 26, 2013 - Brokerage
Recently, the WinnResidential NYC team spent a day volunteering at the Stapleton Housing Projects in Staten Island, the largest affordable housing site in the borough. Please find attached and below a photo from the event and a potential caption. Regrettably, most residents in this community have limited access to fresh and healthy foods. The team partnered with City Harvest and distributed 10,000 pounds of fresh produce to 300 families. City Harvest often has a difficult time attracting volunteers to that part of the city so the 21 volunteers from Winn offered much-needed support. The produce that was distributed came from grocery stores, restaurants and food distributors; food that would otherwise be discarded was used to give back to the community, benefiting 1,000 people.
