How We Started City Harvest was started in 1981 by ordinary citizens who saw an
opportunity to help feed hungry people. They gathered volunteers, borrowed cars and vans and transported
the food themselves. At the time there were only 30 emergency food programs in New
York City. As hunger and poverty increased in New York, City Harvest grew.
In the past 30 years, this volunteer-based, one van operation has grown into a sophisticated, professional non-profit leader in the hunger community.

Why Poverty is Connected to Health
1. Low income neighborhoods lack adequate grocery stores
2. Nowhere to exercise
3. Healthy food costs more, and takes more time to prepare
4. Unhealthy food is cheap and easily accessible

Resulting in… Low income neighborhoods are plagued with diet
related diseases:– Diabetes rates in New York City increased by 250%
between 1997 and 2007; – Low income families are more than 3 times as likely to
suffer from these types of chronic illnesses; and– Deaths related to diabetes are 3.3 times higher in low
income neighborhoods than in wealthier neighborhoods.
