This has been an unprecedented time with a one-two punch that are inextricably intertwined:
Overnight ALL of Heights and Hills’ clients suddenly became the most vulnerable targets of a global pandemic, the likes of which our country hasn’t seen in over 100 years.

THANK YOU to everyone who helped bring food and cheer to our homebound older neighbors on Thanksgiving Day!
Together with our community partners – the 84th Precinct, BloomAgainBklyn, Camp Friendship Food Pantry, Cobble Hill LifeCare, Grace Church, Packer Collegiate School, Plymouth Church, and 85 volunteers from New York Cares – we delivered to over 200 of our most vulnerable and homebound clients.
“…the most memorable Thanksgiving in a long time.”
Mr. W., Heights and Hills client
As the saying goes, it takes a village. I am grateful that so many gave of their time and energy to help Brooklyn’s oldest feel connected and loved this Thanksgiving holiday.
