Westchester County leaders have awarded nearly $20,000 to two nonprofits helping families access food.
The Pantry in Mount Kisco will receive $12,500, while the Community Center of Northern Westchester in Katonah will get $7,000.
County officials say the funding will support food pantries, home deliveries and other programs that provide assistance to residents facing food insecurity.
The announcement comes on Hunger Action Day, a nationwide effort to raise awareness about hunger and the challenges many families face putting food on the table.
