A Community Fridge is a type of mutual aid project that enables food to be shared within a community. Food is available for free and community members can drop off and pick up food as needed.
The Community Fridge at ASK is open 24/7 🌟 stop by the Arts Society of Kingston (97 Broadway, Kingston, NY) any time to donate, or take any food you need!
Interested in helping out? Read on about the roles we’ll need filled:
🌟 Donate Food
After the fridge is in place, it needs to be stocked. We are reaching out to local markets and restaurants, but if you have the means to pick up a little extra on your trips to the store and drop it off, every bit helps.
🌟 Volunteer to Check On It
We want to make sure the fridge is operational, stocked, and the area around it is clean. There will be opportunities to sign up for check-in slots.
We look forward to working with the Rondout community in this way and encourage you to get involved in a way that works for you! Questions? Interested in helping out? Email ask@askforarts.org
