North Brooklyn Mutual Aid
Our group formed in response to the unfolding COVID-19 pandemic but is vested in longstanding community initiatives and partnerships in North Brooklyn, including Woodhull Hospital, Northside Senior Center, Pete McGuinness Senior Center, Los Sures Food Pantry, Lindsay Park Houses, Berry Street Houses, Cooper Park Houses, St. Nick’s Alliance and Wyckoff Hospital.
Our core team is comprised of local volunteers who have a heart for the neighborhood. Together, we help coordinate the daily delivery of masks to hospitals, hot meals to senior centers, and grocery runs to neighbors in need, and more.
