QNS: Queens elected officials partner with Grubhub to donate meals to veterans

Council members Robert Holden and Julie Won joined Grubhub’s Serving the City program to donate 500 meals from O’Neill’s in Maspeth to local veterans.

The generous donation of meals went to the Institute for Community Living’s Borden Avenue Veterans Residence in Long Island City, which is the only shelter in the city exclusively serving veterans experiencing homelessness.

Holden, the chairman of the City Council’s Committee on Veterans, said that when he first visited the Borden Avenue shelter, the residents requested better food. Holden said that while he is working for a more long-term solution to this problem, he is happy to partner with Grubhub to deliver meals from one of his favorite local restaurants.
