According to the City Harvest audit of June 30, 2020 (Note 1 re: Nature of Activities): "This year, City Harvest has launched a $60 million capital campaign to fund the renovation of and move to City Harvest's new headquarters in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. This new location will allow City Harvest to unite its operational, programmatic and administrative staffs in one space. It will position City Harvest to work more efficiently, and rescue and deliver, free of charge, a greater volume of food to meet the need for food assistance that existed in New York City before COVID-19 and has grown dramatically following the pandemic and resulting economic crisis." |
According to the City Harvest audit of June 30, 2020 (Note 12, Subsequent Events): "City Harvest evaluated its June 30, 2020 financial statements for subsequent events through November 10, 2020, the date the financial statements were available to be issued... "The COVID-19 pandemic, whose effects first became known in January 2020, is having a broad and negative impact on commerce and financial markets around the world. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on City Harvest's operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and its impact on its donors, employees and vendors, all of which at present cannot be determined. Accordingly, the extent to which COVID-19 may impact City Harvest's financial position and changes in net assets and cash flows is uncertain and the accompanying [audited] financial statements include no adjustments relating to the effects of this pandemic." |
