Ongoing Campaigns
The Food Bank's partners are always looking for creative ways to support hunger relief in New York City. Browse our ongoing campaigns below for a few of our partners' efforts that keep on giving! For upcoming and annual efforts, please visit our Event & Campaign Calendar.
Food Bank board member, iconic chef and restaurateur Mario Batali has partnered with Swiss watch manufacturer Ernst Benz to create the Mario Batali Limited Edition Great Circle Automatic, a series of 750 timepieces featuring accents in Batali's standout signature orange color — also the color of hunger awareness. A percentage of the proceeds will benefit the Food Bank. Order your timepiece today!
Food Bank board member Mario Batali and Cosmoda Corporation present a smart new line of insulated lunch bags. Inspired by Mario Batali’s love of food and wine, this unique line of reusable lunch bags combines Mario’s passion for creative cuisine and Cosmoda’s fashion-forward, functional designs — plus, a portion of all sale proceeds benefit hunger relief!
Since Brooklyn designer Deborah Stein launched Bonbon Oiseau in 2004, the jewelry-maker has become known for her limited-edition designs. Inspired by Indian artisans and available around the United States, Europe and Asia, Bonbon Oiseau is giving back to the community it calls home with a limited-edition necklace. A beautiful sentiment including a tiny Japanese style Buddha, a Victorian-era foil inlay milk-glass, a tourmaline stone and more — $20 will be donated to the Food Bank for every purchase. With a limited edition of 120, Bonbon Oiseau hopes to raise $2,400 — helping to provide 12,000 meals for New Yorkers in need. Each necklace comes with a card indicating how much you helped raise.
Buy a limited edition print from Needs for Sale and help provide 500 meals for hungry New Yorkers! When you buy a print of “A Good Meal,” 100 percent of every sale benefits the Food Bank For New York City. The original painting was sold last December — get your print before they run out!
