Boots on the Ground serves Saturday breakfasts at 149th and 3rd Avenue beginning at 8 a.m.
Summary
Boots on the Ground operates a weekly free breakfast in the South Bronx every Saturday at 149th and 3rd Avenue, starting service at 08:00, serving families, elderly people and residents with disabilities.
On Open, Maddie Marnes said Boots on the Ground operates "every Saturday" at the corner of 149th and 3rd Avenue and that service begins at 08:00. She described the outreach as open to "moms with kids, dads with kids, we get elderly, we get people that are disabled."
Marnes said volunteers and a small staff prepare and distribute food rain or shine, even clearing snow when necessary. The program's visible location and consistent schedule, she said, make it a reliable source of morning meals for a cross-section of Bronx residents.
