Join us to build a better future for New York City
Planting Systems, Nourishing Generations
September 24, 2026 | 6:00 PM
The Planter Awards Gala is TCAH's signature annual celebration, honoring individuals and organizations committed to food justice and building a better future for New York City. Now in its 16th year, the gala brings together elected officials, corporate partners, philanthropists, and community leaders for an evening that celebrates progress while rallying support for the work still ahead.
Food insecurity remains one of the most urgent, and solvable, crises facing New York City. Every day, TCAH serves families who are working, raising children, and doing everything right, yet still can't consistently put food on the table. The need is growing. So is our response.
At The Campaign Against Hunger, we are planting that future now. A 2026 Planter Awards sponsorship is more than support for one evening. It is an investment in a stronger, more equitable food system - one capable of nourishing New Yorkers today while building resilience for generations to come.
TCAH serves as a critical support system in response to these gaps, providing more than 17.3 million pounds of food, which translates to an estimated 20.4 million meals, across 775,888 household visits city-wide.
The Benefit Access Office provides support, guidance, and hope to families facing food insecurity and systemic barriers.
Our Super Pantry transforms food distribution into a dignified shopping experience that prioritizes choice, respect, and health.
The Campaign Against Hunger’s Fresh Vibes Market is a mobile distribution unit that provides fresh, affordable produce to the community and provides additional services.
 TCAH’s CyberPantry is an innovative food procurement, and delivery system that allows clients to select their preferred foods online, ensuring they receive the nourishment they need, delivered right to their doorstep.
Our Urban Agricultural Center turns vacant lots into thriving farms while empowering youth to lead on climate resilience. Across four sites and more than three acres, we harvested 24,565 pounds of produce and 1,500 eggs, generating $36,555.73 in farm sales and nourishing thousands of New Yorkers.
TCAH’s Youth Empowerment Program (YEP) continued to create meaningful opportunities for Black and Brown youth across Brooklyn, Queens, and beyond, blending career pathways, mentorship, skill-building, and community connection.Â
The Weekend Healthy Snack Program is a direct response to a gap many unhoused NYC kids face once school doors close on Fridays. Each week, the program provides over 2,600 elementary school students with weekend meals across more than 33 schools citywide.
