Meeting Urgent Needs, Building Lasting Change

Hearts Unbound is building programs that meet people where they are. Each one is rooted in compassion, dignity, and a belief that everyone deserves care.

Join Our Mission

Food Security & Nutrition

We are combating hunger through planned food distribution initiatives, meal programs, and community partnerships. Our goal is simple: help more New Yorkers access the nutritious food they deserve.

Clothing & Essential Needs

We plan to collect clothing, hygiene products, and other basic necessities to distribute to individuals and families facing clothing insecurity. Small essentials can restore comfort and dignity.

Healthcare Access & Medical Outreach

Founded by physicians, Hearts Unbound has plans of expanding access to compassionate, affordable healthcare. We are planning community-based medical outreach, preventive services, and free-to-sliding-scale clinical care.

Harm Reduction & Overdose Prevention

Our early work includes naloxone (Narcan) distribution to help prevent overdose deaths. We are also planning overdose prevention education and connections to substance use treatment and supportive resources.

Why This Work Matters

1.3 million
New Yorkers struggled to afford food in 2025
2,192
unintentional overdose deaths recorded in NYC in 2024
53%
of adults in NYC households below 200% of the federal poverty level experienced low or very low food security
51%
of NYC adults lived in families experiencing at least one form of material hardship, including difficulties meeting food, housing, financial, medical, or utility needs

These numbers show why urgent, compassionate action cannot wait. As an emerging organization, we are committed to tracking our impact honestly as these programs grow. We believe in being transparent about where we are and where we are headed.
