Do you have specific Neighborhood(s) in mind?

Bedford Stuyvesant

Older Adults

Low Income People

Describe the challenge you want to address:

We are senior citizens, low-income and many have disabilities, which limits our abilities to go places. I want to suggest field trips to help us to be entertained and our spirits lifted. Trips would include: The Aquarium, Movie Theater, Science Centers, Wax Museums, ( Madame Tussaud's), Malls, etc. Movie nights once a month with snacks here where we live. Food pantry with fresh fruits, meats- not only high carb foods.

What is the solution to the challenge?

Work with social workers to develop these ideas and address the logistics i.e., travel/transportation, how to register for these activities.
Multi language for our building.
