What We Do

Every Day is a Miracle is committed to helping the 1 in 5 children and 2 in 5 adult residents in the Bronx that struggle with hunger and depend on emergency food programs like ours to adequately feed themselves and their families. To fight and reduce hunger in our community, we provide and connect those in need with beneficial and meaningful services.

How We Source Food

The food Every Day is a Miracle receives comes from our network food relief organizations’ warehouse, rescue food agencies, food vendors, community garden, and farmers. We take pride in serving our food pantry visitors a variety of healthy and nutritious foods. Our philosophy is to always source the best food quality for our families, seniors, and community residents

How We Distribute Food

Visitors can choose their food selections to meet dietary needs and religious/cultural preferences. As a result, we are able to better identify the food preferences of our visitors, reduce food waste, and increase access to healthy and nutritious foods.

Promoting Self-Sufficiency

All of Every Day is a Miracle’s programs and services are designed towards empowering and uplifting families and individuals out of poverty and becoming more economically independent. We provide a wide range of programs and services to everyone who enters our doors.

Building Local Capacity

Every Day is a Miracle provides technical assistance and support to other community groups or agencies that are either starting up or want to grow their programs. This service is provided through a first come, first serve application process with a scaling fee basis on annual organizational budget.

Send Food

We gladly accept donations of food. Help by organizing food drives or collecting food from family and friends. Let your voice be heard and help us end hunger.
