What initially started as a community-based, collective effort for the LGBTQ community of Queens has organically grown into a larger movement to address food insecurity across New York City, regardless of their sexual orientation, gender identity, or immigration status.   

Love Wins NYC is a diverse group of volunteers. We rely on the generous support of donors and partners to provide fresh vegetables and non-perishable items in a safe space to LGBTQ and gender non-confirming community and their neighbors.

The act of giving is powerful and fortifying for the giver, and it is our goal to have our program become a site of community-building, where clients receive more than just access to food. Volunteers who participate more fully with the Love Wins NYC, have the ability to build skills, confidence, friendship, and community while giving back and applying their own knowledge, expertise, and passion to the organization.
