NY CityFest-Bronx is a celebration of NY CityServe, an outreach that launched in NYC in Sept. 2014 after 1,000 local business, political and faith leaders representing 1,200 churches, nonprofit organizations and local government initiatives from the five boroughs and additional outlying areas came together and pledged to love and serve all of New York City. To date, tens of thousands have been served by the collaborative efforts in New York City, New Jersey and Connecticut, with many more events planned.
