Our Work

STRATEGIC PURCHASING

From its inception, the Roundtable has had strategic purchasing as a cornerstone of its work, with the goal of procuring more high-quality, nutritious, and culturally appropriate food at better prices for its member organizations and the people they serve.

ADVOCACY

The Roundtable is a voice of advocacy for direct-service emergency food organizations in New York City. Because Roundtable organizations are embedded in the communities they serve, they keenly understand the resources and policies those communities need in order to ensure that none of our neighbors go hungry.

MUTUAL SUPPORT

By creating a space for collaboration and communication among peer organizations, the Roundtable helps its members maximize their resources and find new ways of working together.
