Harlem Food Bank

The Harlem Food Bank is starting their Annual Drive for funds for the coming year. We will begin on 1 September 2024 and go until 20 November 2024. Town Pump has offered us $2500.00 if we can match that amount. We have been able to match their offer in the past and hope to again this year. Any and all help is appreciated.
