On August 24th, 2024, at 12 PM, Unisocial hosted an event in the Flatbush neighborhood of Brooklyn, NYC, where volunteers came together to give back to the community by providing food.
Flatbush Neighborhood’s Strengths and Challenges
The Flatbush neighborhood, located in the heart of Brooklyn, NYC, is a destination for Caribbean communities in the region because it has a diverse community that offers a variety of options for music, food, and arts.
In the combined area of Flatbush and Midwood, one of the major challenges faced by residents is rent burden. Out of every 100 people, 54 spend more than 30% of their income on housing, and approximately 2 out of every 10 people live in poverty, according to NYC Community Health Profiles.
On August 24th, 2024, at 12 PM, Unisocial hosted an event in the Flatbush area of Brooklyn, NYC, where 15 volunteers came together to give back to the community by providing food, listening ears, and prayer. The event attracted over 100 people.
Pastor Alex shared, “People were happy and grateful, and we even had some attendees join the church as a result of the event.”
