Every Day is a Miracle is able to meet it's goals by networking with other local organizations, and hunger and poverty advocating organizations who support a good cause. We are also supported by public leaders (council members, senate, and South Bronx assembly members). We are able to achieve some of our goals with the help of the great amount of dedicated volunteers who assist in administrative programming, outreach and development. However, food donations through government agencies, food relief organizations, businesses such as supermarkets and school food drives play a major role in granting us the ability to reach our goals.
We also receive corporate support and in-kind donations ( facility, services,etc). By having a strong social presence we are able to spread awareness to reduce hunger in other communities. Last, but definitely not least, professional development for the board, volunteers, and staff to better serve to the community, organizational structure and strategies, programming, development, and evaluation are all contributory to our main goal.
