Queens Together Mission
Creating one voice to represent, empower and support the restaurants, food businesses and communities of our diverse borough.
We reimagine our local food industry as the engine for nourishing our communities with food and economic security.
Featured Fundraiser of the Day
RED DAY 2021What is Red Day? One whole day where KW shuts their doors WORLDWIDE to get in the field and volunteer for something bigger than ourselves. Last year we raised over $9,000 for Queens Together to purchase and distribute hot meals to families in severe need of aid during the pandemic. We also provided lunches to a few area hospitals to the nurses and doctors working to save lives.
This year, we are raising funds in hopes of lessening the burden placed on those still facing food insecurity in Jackson Heights. $25 donation feeds a family of 4, and all of the proceeds will go to the Jackson Heights Community Fridge via The Queensboro restaurant and will be distributed to families on Thursday, May 13th.
We are the borough's first grassroots restaurant association. Creating one voice for advocacy, promotion, education, savings and community service.
We reimagine our local food industry as the catalyst for nourishing communities in crisis. Providing prepared meals and groceries to people facing food insecurity. Serving meals to frontline heroes. Working with partner organizations to fulfill their food delivery missions. We do this with funding, support and partnership of donors, volunteers, organizations and the hard working chefs and crews at restaurants and food businesses. Thank you all.

My heart goes out to those struggling at this time and at all times. I've been there myself and I'm grateful now to be stable and in a position to give back. Therefore, I'm donating a part of my stimulus money to your organization, as a former volunteer and resident of Queens. Thank you for what you do.Read More...
