Our Mission
Our mission is four-fold: To provide a reliable source of food for those who are hungry To support good nutrition through our meals and with education To offer connections to other services To strengthen community through shared service
Who We Are
We believe everyone has the right to have access to food. Trinity's Services And Food for the Homeless (or SAFH, pronounced "safe") started out as a response to the homeless living in and around Tompkins Square Park 30 years ago.
And while the neighborhood of the East Village has changed dramatically these past decades, the need in this community has not.
While we are programmatically connected to Trinity Lower East Side Lutheran Parish, but separately incorporated with our own board and separate finances.
Through our daily soup kitchen and food pantry, we serve around 200,000 meals annually. Our referral center connects families and individuals to services throughout the five boroughs.
People of every background, race, sexual orientation, gender identity and/or expression, religion, and of any age may enjoy the meal without fear of being turned away.
