Volunteer to Help Homeless New Yorkers
The Coalition For The Homeless (www.coalitionforthehomeless.org) is the oldest non-profit advocate of the homeless and low-income populations in the city. Among its various activities is its 'Grand Central Food Program,' which delivers meals throughout the city every night.

The Coalition is looking for immediate volunteer help on Sunday evenings, specifically for drivers with clean records and the ability to handle a van. Three vans go out seven nights a week, one each to the Bronx, Uptown Manhattan/Harlem and Downtown Manhattan. Approximately 750 to 1,000 individuals and families are served each day through this program. New volunteer drivers will be given printed route directions and will also be accompanied by at least one other volunteer that is familiar with the route.
