Get Involved
It’s natural to want to serve.
God gave you a heart like His – a heart for people. While we all have needs, it’s good to get outside of ourselves and serve someone else. It may not come naturally to you to see where you can serve in your immediate neighborhood, but we have many opportunities to get you involved in serving. From assisting with meals for the elderly to helping pack food boxes for delivery to families, there is something for you to do.
You can choose from the opportunities below to serve New York City, the United States, and internationally.

Feeding Programs and Projects
ChildCry works alongside local ministry partners in 20 countries around the world to feed hungry kids in their communities. 100% of every dollar you donate to ChildCry is used to purchase food for hungry kids. Overhead costs are provided by Times Square Church. Whether it’s curried rice for kids in India, naan for kids in Afghanistan or veggies and sausages for kids in Papua New Guinea, ChildCry partners serve kids culturally appropriate meals that they can not only recognize but also enjoy.
Feed New York supplies healthy food to local churches that are committed to helping people in their community who struggle to provide food for themselves and their families.
We found that the most effective way of making sure food gets to people who need it most, is working with local churches. Churches know the needs in their communities and people know that they can turn to churches in times of need.
Often the needs go beyond hunger. That’s why prayer is important to Feed New York. Our church partners not only provide food, they provide hope through prayer and an opportunity to find a relationship with God through Jesus Christ.
In the midst of the poverty and oppression of the red-light district, a woman from Times Square Church along with a team of local staff serve women in the red-light district, opened a rehabilitation center for women rescued from the brothels, and two group homes, one for girls and one for boys, rescued from the brothels. The physical location of the center and two group homes is significant as they are in the exact geographic center of the city. They are truly a light set on a hill for all those hiding in the dark, hidden world of sex slavery to come out and find hope and a new life.
This team in India goes to serve women in the red-light district. They show the love of Christ and pray that their acts of love and service will warm their hearts to Jesus and give them courage to leave the red-light district. For those who do choose to leave, they have a rehabilitation center to help them find their healing in Jesus Christ and restore their dignity. The team mentors the women, helping them to find housing and directing them to other organizations that focus on vocational training so they can start their new lives outside the red-light district.
The group homes for children offer a safe environment with adults who demonstrate and teach the love of Jesus Christ, provide hope and healing, and training to live productive lives. These kids, whose lives were once used purely for financial gain, are given a nurturing home and taught that their lives are infinitely valuable.
