Based in the Park Slope/Gowanus community of Brooklyn, the mission of CHiPS is two fold: to eliminate food insecurity and homelessness in New York City.
For 50 years CHiPS has provided those often forgotten with a warm meal and kind smile. Our Frances Residence offers fully furnished studio apartments for expecting or single mothers in need of emergency temporary housing.
Founded in 1971 to offer sustenance to our community, CHiPS is now a full-service soup kitchen and food pantry open six days a week, as well as a home for expectant single mothers. For over fifty years, we’ve served as a beacon of hope to thousands of our friends and neighbors in need—and we’ve been able to succeed thanks to people like you. Our friends, supporters, volunteers help ensure we keep the doors open, the meals hot, and the support ready for years to come.
There are many ways to get involved with both the Food Pantry and Frances House.
