“Providing support at the food bank has been such a fulfilling experience and it has meant so much to me to support students this way. The most rewarding moments have come from asking them about their day, how their classes are going, or getting excited with them when we’ve restocked on drumsticks, milk, apple juice and eggs; 'Liquid gold' is what the students call it.”

Thanks for Your Leadership! Lehman's Basic Needs Center and Herbert H. Lehman Food Bank thanked interns, volunteers, and staff for their service.
