Think about the holidays - where are most of your memories made? If you said around the dinner table, you’re not alone. Food and fellowship are a big part of the holidays for most families. Making holiday treats, tasting your favorite dish – but most importantly, reconnecting with friends and family over a special holiday meal. Food brings us together, and helps make lasting memories.
For families facing hunger, holiday meals - and the holidays - might not feel as special.

But you can help. We want all families and members of our community to be able to enjoy this special time of year - and a holiday meal. By supporting our annual Holiday Campaign, you can help families find joy this holiday season. And help us ensure we have the resources needed to provide groceries and meals for all who come to our door.

We are largely community supported, which means we rely heavily on donations directly from our generous community members, like you! You can make a huge difference in the life of someone facing food insecurity by making a gift. No matter the size, it makes a difference and allows us to continue our life-saving work.

We know there are many organizations asking for help, and many choices to make with where to give - especially this time of year.

We are eternally grateful for all of you who continue to be a part of the Sylvia Rivera’s Place community, and we pledge to always serve as a safe space for LGBTQI youth, and a support system welcoming ALL members of our community as we commit ourselves to justice and inclusion for all.

Please consider making a gift now.
