Food pantry to hold flea market on November 4
A local food pantry in dire need of funding just got one of itswishes granted.
Thomas Neve, founder and executive director of Reaching OutCommunity Services, was hoping to hold a flea market in CadmanPlaza, but was denied a permit by the Parks Department. Luckily, aGood Samaritan stepped up and offered a Bay Ridge space to host themarket.
We need to hold something on a consistent basis so we can findfunding, Neve explained. We really need some extra help here. Aweekly or bi-weekly flea market can raise enough for me to pay rentand utilities for the store.
