City Harvest: New York Hungers
At the heart of this New York-based nonprofit is a straightforward yet vital mission: to rescue surplus food and get it to those who desperately need it—families and individuals who are struggling to make ends meet. Our goal was to make City Harvest resonate deeply with the sense of hometown pride and the strong community spirit that New Yorkers are known for. We put together a documentary that we showcased at donor meetings and events, and featured heavily on their website and online platforms. I produced, co-wrote and directed the film we called “New York Hungers”.
