Grand Street Settlement

We had the honor of hosting Executive Leaders from our Bronx Settlement House partners at Pelham Parkway Child and Family Center! As we put the final touches on this beautiful space and prepare to open, we're grateful to have the opportunity to meet with invaluable partners that have been serving our new neighbors for many years. Thank you Sinclair Hollingsworth from BRONX HOUSE , Eileen T. from BronxWorks, Agnes Matibag and Rita Santelia from Mosholu Montefiore Community Center, Inc., Nicole Benjamin, JD, LLM, LMSW from Southeast Bronx Neighborhood Center's, Inc, Paula Inhargue and Nora Moran from United Neighborhood Houses for joining us! We're excited to be working alongside you to support The Bronx!

This #ImpactFriday, we're giving a special shoutout to our wonderful food pantry volunteers! Nearly half of older New Yorkers are facing food insecurity, including 23% of our neighbors in the Lower East Side. In partnership with City Harvest and with the assistance of our volunteers, Grand Street's food pantry provides over 9,000 pounds of fresh produce each week. Thank you to our volunteers this year, who make it possible to serve over 700 Older Adults every week: Argo Group, Citi, Neuberger Berman, NYCares, RCLCO, and UBS. We'd also like to extend a special thank you to our food pantry donors, whose contributions enable us to provide even more meals to our participants. Want to get your team involved with Grand Street?

Our Voices Count. The members of the settlement house movement have been the leading coalition of nonprofits in New York City for over a century and today, United Neighborhood Houses gathered us at Essex Crossing Community Center in the Lower East Side for discussions on how we can continue to work together to engage our communities. Thank you Susan Stamler, Lynn Appelbaum, and the UNH team for allowing us to host you and for leading these important conversations. We're proud to work alongside you to ensure all of our neighbors are able to thrive.

Grand Street Settlement’s sites and administrative offices will be closed today, October 13th, in observance of Indigenous Peoples’ Day. Our sites and offices will reopen at our usual operating hours tomorrow, October 14th.

Congratulations to our sister settlement house colleagues, Wayne Ho, President & CEO of the Chinese-American Planning Council, and Eileen Torres, CEO of BronxWorks, on their new leadership roles on the Human Services Council of New York Board. We look forward to continuing our collaborations to advocate for the human services sector of New York City.

¡A bailar! This #ImpactFriday, our sites have been celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with an artistic flair. Concerts in Motion brought our Baruch Elder Services Team NORC community together with lively salsa music as participants (and even some of our busy staff!) took to the dance floor. Over at Lyons Community School, students hosted a special Sip & Paint event where they celebrated different Hispanic cultures through art and music. Students enjoyed refreshing drinks (non-alcoholic, of course) while listening to Spanish music, painting, and learning about the lives and cultural contributions of famous Hispanic artists. ¡Nos vemos el próximo #ImpactFriday!
