Councilman Fernando Cabrera and the Bronx Parent Housing Network community residents are hosting a free food and mask event on Tuesday, July 21, 2020  at 12:30 p.m., at University Avenue W. Burnside Avenue Bronx, NY 10453

 

“This community was one of the hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic,” Cabrera said. “We have many essential workers here who risked their lives to keep the rest of us going. We’re all happy about the progress we’ve made as a community and a city, in stopping the community spread of COVID-19, but we still have work to do. People still need help and support including food for their families and face coverings so we can all stay safe and healthy. I am happy to continue providing free food and face coverings to my constituents. We’re in this together.”

 

 

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students.
