Elected officials help distribute food for Passover
Elected officials pitched in to help a charitable group give out free food for Passover during a distribution effort at the Brooklyn Navy Yard that was organized like a precise military operation.
Public Advocate Letitia James, Borough President Eric Adams, Brooklyn District Attorney Ken Thompson, Assemblymembers Joe Lentol and Dov Hikind and Councilmembers Steve Levin, Laurie Cumbo and Rafael Espinal all rolled up their sleeves to help unload boxes of food during a pre-Passover food drive organized by the United Jewish Organizations (UJO) of Williamsburg and North Brooklyn.
The UJO works in partnership with the Metropolitan Council on Jewish on the food distribution program.
