Welcome to Gotham Food Pantry’s 2025 Charity Auction!

This special event brings together our community of supporters, partners, and friends to raise essential funds that fuel our mission: rescuing high-quality surplus food and delivering it to underserved New Yorkers across all five boroughs.

In 2024 alone, Gotham rescued and distributed over 5 million pounds of nutritious food, serving more than 160,000 New Yorkers in need. Every bid you place tonight helps us continue this work, expand into new neighborhoods, and provide stability and nourishment for families facing food insecurity.

From exclusive dining experiences and unique cultural events to getaways and one-of-a-kind items, your winning bids don’t just secure memorable prizes—they directly power our fight against hunger and food waste.

Thank you for being part of this movement toward a more just and sustainable food system.

Together, we can create a New York where food equality is a way of life.
