"In addition to the pantry bags, we also give out fresh fruits and veggies. That's also an issue here in the Bronx, affordable access to fresh fruits and veggies, so we gave them a whole meal. That's something they don't have to worry about for the holiday season," says Africa Dawson, pantry coordinator at MMCC.
The Mosholu Montefiore Community Center tells News 12 they're planning on having another food drive during the month of December.
