The Hudson Gateway Realtor Foundation, the charitable arm of the Hudson Gateway Association of Realtors, presented a check for $3,000 to the Food Bank of the Hudson Valley, based in Cornwall-on-Hudson.
The food bank is dedicated to alleviating hunger while preventing the waste of food. It is a branch of the Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York and a member of Feeding America, the national food bank network.
The food bank collects donations of unmarketable but still edible food and distributes it to charitable agencies feeding hungry people in a six-county region. Last year, the food bank provided more than 16 million pounds of food to 400 member agencies in Orange, Ulster, Dutchess, Rockland, Sullivan and Putnam counties.
