Despite facing challenges, such as having to be outside during harsh weather conditions, the Calvary’s Mission Food Pantry (CMFP) in New York, continues to serve over 1,400 people weekly, and has restarted its humanitarian efforts in Guyana.

Founder of the pantry, Tony Singh, a Guyanese, told Stabroek News that food insecurity is real and he urges those in need to go down to 102-16 89th Avenue, Richmond Hill, Queens where they fill their shopping carts with essential items that would last them for a week.
