All of its profits go to the Greyston Foundation, which operates several intensive self-sufficiency programs in Yonkers, NY, including affordable housing and support services for the formerly homeless, low-income working families; children and youth services including childcare; a technology learning center; health and social services including housing for individuals living with HIV/AIDS; and a community gardens project.
