We are happy to announce that the City of Mt. Vernon has approved our reopen plan to serve a “Grab & Go” dinner every Tuesday through Friday from 5pm – 5:45pm starting September 8 at the Mt. Vernon Armory.
We are starting to accept volunteers for our “Make A Meal” program, and we are allowing limited volunteers on site to help distribute the food. Please feel free to contact us if you would like to help out in any way.
Right now our greatest need will be take out containers and take out bags and re-stocking our refrigerators with food and sliced deli meats for our take home lunch. If you would like to make a donation, please do not hesitate to reach out!
We thank all of our supporters past, present and future as we strive to continue providing the same nutritious and balanced meals as we have always done.
“Make A Meal For One Night” Is More Popular Than Ever!
Thanks to all of our Volunteers for helping bring back our “Make A meal For One Night” Program! We are still unable to invite our large volunteer groups to help ON SITE, but that has not stopped the meal deliveries! The calendar is quickly filling up with individuals and groups who want to provide dinners, so don’t wait to sign up!!!
Volunteer Groups Dropping Off Meals
How CSA Continued to Serve The Community During our Shut Down
We would like to send a huge shout out and “Thank You!” to Westchester County (NY) Chapter, The Links – Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. Westchester Alumni Chapter and Fresh Direct for organizing this Donation of 100 boxes of food for the distribution at the Doles Center on Friday, June 12th.
We would also like to thank Recreation Commissioner Sylvia Gadson, Mayor Shawn Patterson-Howard and the City Employees for continuing to provide these emergency food services to the public until such time as we can get back in the Armory. We are continuing to do what we can by connecting donations like this to the City where it will get immediate use.
2020 Brings New Partnerships and Volunteers to CSA!
We are thrilled to forge new partnerships and invite new volunteer groups and individuals to our CSA Family! 2020 has been stellar so far as we continue receiving local support with “make a meal” donations and monetary contributions.
We’re proud to announce our newest partnership with Country Market in Eastchester as they graciously donate beverage and food items to our program!

Volunteers make up an enormous part of our daily operation. We accept all ages and any groups big or small.
Take Home Lunch
Each dinner guest receives a take home lunch consisting of a sandwich, beverage, snack, and dessert.
Our Mission
What started out in 1986 as a small lunch program has grown into one of the most vital meal programs in the City of Mount Vernon, NY.
We are here to provide a nutritious meal to the most at risk in our community. We offer a free meal, 4 nights per week to anyone in need with no eligibility criteria required.
Our primary operation is a free dinner service every Tuesday – Friday from 5pm – 5:45. We also offer a take home lunch, an emergency pantry, and other take home items (when available).
