"40 years ago, our founder Ganga Stone delivered a single meal to a man dying of AIDS. That simple compassion sparked a movement that has nourished New York City ever since. Today, Liberty BKLYN, our new distribution center, stands as the bridge between where we began and where we are boldly going. With the support of our staff, volunteers, donors and community, together we are achieving our mission and fueling our future."
"I'm proud to support God's Love We Deliver. When you're sick, there's one thing that gets you through the day, and that's a good meal - because food is medicine. Now with Liberty BKLYN open, God's Love and its wonderful volunteers can serve more people throughout the borough, where too many people can't cook or buy groceries for themselves."
God's Love We Deliver began in 1985 and provides medically tailored meals, nutrition care, and education to people living with more than 200 diagnoses, along with their children and caregivers. The organization opened a 30,000-square-foot Liberty BKLYN distribution center on Jan. 8. The facility aligns with the 40th anniversary and the 40 FORWARD Capital Campaign, a $40 million initiative to fund the new site. Liberty BKLYN increases annual meal production capacity from four million to 6.5 million meals. The opening included staff, volunteers, donors, actor Rosie Perez, Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso, and Assemblymember Marcela Mitaynes.
