A billion meals and a billion dollars in tax refunds later, those initial steps have paved a vital way for more New Yorkers than they ever could have imagined. Not only has the face of hunger changed, but the places experiencing hunger have grown. Reaching these milestones has required – and, thankfully, benefited from – the combined energy and force of individuals, institutions and volunteers from various industries across our city. While it’s gratifying to look at results and feel pride, the urgency of need in our city compels us to constantly look for ways to shift the paradigm in addressing and combatting food poverty throughout the five boroughs. We have taken a long, hard look at the systems in place to determine what works, where we can improve, and how we can better empower long term solutions in the spaces and places needing us most. BY USING THE MEAL GAP, A METRIC THAT REPRESENTS THE MEALS MISSING from the communities of those struggling to afford food, Food Bank has been able to pinpoint where we’re lacking as a city and match resources and partners to need. A major lesson on this road to a billion has been how the charities and leaders facing the greatest need are also the most under-resourced. This is why our journey to here has seen a sharpening of our focus in hopes of bringing clarity to the need for building local, place-based capacity and resilience in high-need communities. Real solutions have always been multi-layered and involve participation on every level. Established in 2015, Food Bank’s Strategy Council brings together representatives from the highest-need communities in our member network to re-examine how we distribute and allocate resources by deepening our understanding of the challenges faced on the front lines and the various factors that impact success. Winning at our shared mission requires a belief and investment in the whole being greater than the sum of its parts. Our Tiered Engagement Network (TEN) has grown to nearly 500 member agencies that work together to move families and communities to greater resilience by increasing access to food as well as a range of benefits from financial services to SNAP (food stamps), and beyond. ON THIS ROAD, A BILLION IS A MILEPOST, NOT AN ENDPOINT. While our past successes were marked by pounds of food, our present and future focus on healthy meals to the places and families needing them most. And by diving deep into the complex challenges facing our communities, we can advocate for and implement improvements—not only through emergency food distribution and income support, but also through nutrition education and policy change. There are a billion stories to be told from the streets of New York City. Let’s ensure that they are STORIES OF RESILIENCE, HOPE AND SUCCESS, PLANNED FOR AND EARNED TOGETHER. Sincerely, Margarette Purvis PRESIDENT AND CEO 2016 ANNUAL REPORT 2 FOOD BANK FOR NEW YORK CITY THE ROAD TO 1 BILLION REQUIRES AN UNPRECEDENTED RESOLVETO REACH THOSE WHO NEED US MOST. FOOD BANK FOR NEW YORK CITY IS AT THE EPICENTER, BUT NIMBLE ENOUGH TO ADAPT AND IMPROVE EVERY FACET OF OUR OPERATIONS TO END HUNGER IN NEW YORK CITY. 2016 ANNUAL REPORT FOOD BANK FOR NEW YORK CITY 3 RESOLVE 2016 ANNUAL REPORT FOOD BANK FOR NEW YORK CITY 5 CLOSING THE MEAL GAP NEW YORK CITY’S MEAL GAP IS MORE THAN 240 MILLION The Meal Gap is New York City’s official measure of food insecurity. 20% By mapping the meal gap, Food 24% Bank can see where hunger lives and target our resources toward areas that need it most.

Chapter Two Bizarre Foods White Privilege and the Neocolonial Palate Casey Ryan Kelly [2.0] Whiteness, that invisible and unnamed center from which all others are marked with the category of race, can be best characterized as a space of abundance. From an unmarked position of whiteness flows the private accu- mulation of unearned and often unacknowledged privileges. As Peggy McIn- tosh so aptly observes, white privilege is like an “invisible knapsack of special provisions, maps, passports, codebooks, visas, clothes, tools, and blank checks.” 1 Indeed, whiteness can produce a surplus of material and cultural capital, including the ability to navigate the world with ease, discern- ment, ethos, confidence, and relative comfort without the constraint of skin color.

Not from pre-1995). My girlfriend broke up with me a week ago, and I'm still heartbroken. Yes, I'm lesbian. Thx i was woundering I just broke up with my boyfriend so I can't exactly keep listening to Thinking Out Loud and Adore You... If anyone has some break-up-song recommendations, I like most types of music. Please only suggest recent songs (2012 the oldest) and please nothing upbeat, it just wouldn't fit right. Sad Song- Nashville Cast Nothing- The Script Out of Goodbyes - Maroon 5 ft. Lady A. Superheroes - The Script Lonely Eyes - Chris Young Not Over You - Gavin DeGraw Who's Gonna Save Us - Gavin DeGraw Wanted You More - Lady A.

The five year anniversary of Super Storm Sandy has just occurred and in light of the recent hurricane that plagued the Caribbean, I believe we should take note of how we helped one another during Sandy. At that time I was work- ing as a social worker for Catholic Charities and I witnessed the residents of Canarsie, Coney Island and Far Rockaway trying to resume their lives. The lessons of Super Storm Sandy will remain, and we are always going to be looked to for assistance in helping overcome tragedies as this is a cornerstone of our great 59th As- sembly District.
