So We connected Rethink who we’d like to partner with in the future. They were parking their food truck in front of the red hook library providing free meals but that has ceased once school began. Their truck broke down which was the only reason the truck wasn’t there, however my contact who works there showed up. Not sure if, when we partner with them, if it will definitely be in Red Hook.
The Red Hook Justice community really helped us spread the word about the giveaway. I dropped fliers off with then and they posted them in the buildings. In addition they promoted it on their social media. I’ve been in touch with Amanda and were hoping to meet to see if there is something we can do together to see how we may be able to work together for the betterment of Red Hook community.
The response, if you mean from those who were their for the grocery’s, was great. Everyone was very appreciative and giving thanks . Some asked who and why we were providing these bags. It was a great feeling all around
