Queens Council Member Sandra Ung partnered with a local nonprofit organization to provide relief to elderly victims of a benefits scam that left them without essential resources ahead of the holiday season.
Ung partnered with the Met Council, a Jewish nonprofit organization dedicated to combating poverty, to deliver 54 boxes of food to residents of the B’nai B’rith Queens Apartments at 138-49 Elder Ave. in Flushing on Friday, Dec. 20. The senior living community, which houses 190 units, includes 24 residents who fell victim to a widespread EBT scam earlier in December.
