Lenox Hill Neighborhood House

Lenox Hill Neighborhood House is a service organization with multiple locations between 54th and 102nd Streets, with its main building on East 70th Street. The facility provides meals, education classes, and various support programs for over 2,500 active members.

The organization was founded in 1894 as a free kindergarten for immigrant children and grew to become the largest social services provider on the Upper East Side. Over more than a century, it developed into an important community resource for the growing neighborhood.

The center serves people from many different countries and backgrounds, offering them practical support in their daily lives. The programs show how the neighborhood values helping those who need guidance and assistance.

The facility is open daily and provides meals along with various classes and support services. Visitors can stop by to learn about available programs or participate in the activities offered.

A special program called the Teaching Kitchen trains other nonprofit organizations how to prepare nutritious meals at no cost. This approach has made it possible to provide millions of meals across many different facilities each year.
