NYCRM’s 132-bed facility at 90 Lafayette St. — today called The Bowery Mission’s Tribeca Campus — serves as The Bowery Mission’s primary site for basic needs and emergency care.
Pedro Rodrigues has been honored as a COVID-19 Hero of The Bowery Mission for his work in keeping the food flowing during the height of the pandemic.
Rodrigues reflected at the time, “We’re fighting an enemy that we can’t see, and that in itself is scary, almost psychological. I never thought I would experience a crisis like this. When you can’t see or feel something, that in itself makes you feel anxiety. And everyone was going through that. We were all in that together.
A wise person once told me, “Pedro, you must not leave a sinking ship.” For me, that means you don’t abandon the guests in their time of need. Because where are they going to go? The pandemic really makes you refocus on what’s important. For me, that is providing food for our guests. I love being here to prepare that little feast. God has given me these two hands for that purpose.”
