The response over the last six months has been amazing and collectively, we&#8217;ve donated nearly $25,000 through our Plates with Purpose and Better to Give programs. It only costs City Harvest 27 cents to rescue and deliver one pound of food, so these donations have helped feed more than 78,000 hungry New Yorkers!<\/p>\n<p>City Harvest relies on the support of individuals to keep their fleet of 18 trucks and 3 bikes on the road nearly 24\/7. This year alone, City Harvest will deliver over 38 million pounds of excess food to help feed our hungry neighbors.
