About The Campaign Against Hunger Inc.

OUR STORY Dr. Melony Samuels, Executive Director and Founder of The Campaign Against Hunger (TCAH), is a true community champion. In 1998, her compassion led her to help a struggling mother out of her own pocket--an act that sparked a mission. She knew the fight against hunger required more than kindness; it needed a community effort. Since then, TCAH has grown from a small church basement pantry into a powerhouse addressing youth empowerment, nutrition education, and community engagement. We've undergone name changes (Grace International Bed-Stuy Campaign Against Hunger TCAH), served 150 zip codes, and championed food justice across NYC. Our once-small pantry is now a SuperPantry and model of client choice. We offer nutrition classes, cooking demos, urban farms, and youth jobs through our Green Teens program. We also provide services like SNAP enrollment, health insurance signups, and tax prep. As hunger, inequality, and health disparities persist, our work continues to evolve.
