allow us to maintain our commitment to all who
need God’s Love for years to come. Made possible
with significant gifts from Michael Kors and the City
of New York, along with hundreds of supporters, the
dream of our new building has become a reality!
Our brand new, state-of-the-art, 9,600 square
foot kitchen on the second floor -- made possible by
a generous gift from Steven and Alexandra Cohen and
named in their honor -- has wonderful natural light, and
includes four industrial-size refrigerators, three freezers,

five blast freezers, five 80-gallon soup kettles, and a
waste digester that converts up to 1,000 lbs. of organic
food waste into disposable water. Our talented kitchen
staff and volunteers are thrilled to have started cooking
delicious, nutritious food for our clients.
We were honored to have Melissa Rivers and
her son Cooper with us for the dedication of the

its Chairman, John Demsey.

“it feels good to do good.”
She greets everyone with her thousand-watt smile every

effervescent spirit, it was grief and despair that brought her
to God’s Love. Carol’s father had just passed away when she
decided to start volunteering. She tells us, “I was devastated.

22 in Central Park. The Race to Deliver is
one of the largest annual fundraisers for God’s
Love We Deliver. It is a four mile run/walk,
followed by multiple-distance Kids’ Races. The
Race is a symbol of our daily race to ensure
that no person ever has to face the urgent crisis
of illness and hunger.
There are so many different ways to
participate in this fun event! You can sign up
to run the Race, join a team, or sponsor a
runner or a team, all at racetodeliver.org. Or,
consider joining the virtual team, captained
by Melissa Rivers, appropriately named the
“Can We Walk” team! It’s a great way to get
family and friends involved with God’s Love.
The Race to Deliver is always a special day, as
it brings thousands of New Yorkers from all
walks of life together in support of their most
vulnerable neighbors.
We urgently need your participation even
more this year as the need for our nutritious,
individually tailored meals continues to grow.
With your help, God’s Love We Deliver
currently prepares and delivers more than
5,500 meals to clients daily.
