At Erin’s Angels of CNY, our mission isn’t defined by a single zip code — it’s driven by love and the belief that every child deserves access to the food they need to thrive. Whether a child lives down the street or across county lines, if they’re in need, we want to be there. Hunger doesn’t stop at neighborhood borders, and neither will we.
Together, we can make sure no child feels forgotten — no matter where they live.💜 One meal, one child, one act of love at a time. 💜
Elementary Principal Tim Cowin contacted us because the social workers told him that kids were hungry and needed snacks last year. Erin's Angels provided snacks for our friends to nourish them so they can concentrate on learning!
We partnered with Rise Above Poverty for their 3rd grade reading program. We sent pizzas for the Saturday morning and after school tutoring sessions!
In order to achieve equitable access to arts education, Red House Arts Center, Inc. and Erin’s Angels partnered in 2022 and 2023 to ensure students attending Redhouse in-house programs were given equitable access to nutritional food and snacks while attending full-day programs. With upwards of 60-70% of families in Syracuse suffering from food insecurity, this partnership was an integral part of providing programs to students in a way that sets them up for success.
In just the first month of camps, Erin’s Angels provided 260 boxed lunches for Redhouse students, making the students feel confident and secure while at camps. In many situations, lunch and snack time - watching other children pull out fresh food and drinks - can be a cause of extreme stress for a child suffering from food insecurity. In addition to the hunger, they feel a sense of shame, like they are lesser than their peers, and oftentimes these feelings are also accompanied by embarrassment.
To mobilize individuals, the community and resources to provide food for kids in need. Want to partner with us? Email Sheila today.
