UPPER EAST SIDE, Manhattan (WABC) -- Student volunteers with Project Rousseau got cooking for migrant families.

The organization has made it an annual holiday tradition to bake pies for those in need.

On Saturday they baked more than 300 of those pies at PS 6 on the Upper East Side to be handed out at the Metropolitan Museum to migrant families and others in transitional housing.

Project Rousseau's mission is to empower young people from underserved communities to reach their full potential.

Many of those young volunteers are themselves recent arrivals to the United States.
