A mission to give and get essential items.

Food First is designed to make it easier for you to donate essential items on your busy schedule. Just send us an email with your address, convenient pick up times for you, and rough estimate of quantity of donations. We'll email you a confirmation with a designated time. Pick ups can be contactless.

TO DONATE:
TO RECEIVE:
Believe New York is a growing non-profit, and as such we have limited funding. We will try our best to find resources for those in need, but these resources may not always be available.
We may refer you to a partner resource if supplies are unavailable. We promise to do our best to help whomever asks.
If you are in need of essential items, please email us at gethelp@believeny.org.
Once you email us, you will receive a short application that asks you for more information about the items you need. Please be prepared to show at least one supporting document. Supporting documents can include but are not limited to hospital records, doctor's notes, bills, case worker notes, shelter placements, child care records etc.
