BROOKLYN – In order to help combat food insecurity in Brooklyn, the Brooklyn Nets and Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) have teamed up to launch The Brooklyn Nets Food Pantry presented by HSS. The food pantry will be located at P.S. 308, Clara Cardwell School, in Brooklyn’s Bed-Stuy neighborhood – an area where food insecurity impacts approximately 26% of the population according to Food Bank For New York City – and will be stocked with non-perishable food items and provided the necessary support to distribute free groceries and meals on-site.
P.S. 308 is a Title 1 school, serving a high number of children from low-income households. In order to provide additional support for these families, the Nets and HSS will also work with the Food Bank and P.S. 308 to deploy a family-focused nutrition program to help address food insecurities experienced by students and their families.
