Every Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, the Common Pantry distributes grocery packages to thousands of families. The CKGSB team spent their morning packing fresh zucchini, sweet potatoes, onions, apples, and bananas and later took grocery requests from Pantry clients.

 “It was wonderful to give back to our community here in New York while and showing what kind of presence CKGSB wants to have here in New York. We care about New York, and it’s important to give our time to demonstrate that,” said Greg Marchi, Chief Representative of CKGSB-Americas.
