Every day, we see our neighbors working as hard as they can to support themselves and their families. Because of friends and donors like you, one thing they don't have to worry about is where their next meal is coming from!

Would you like to make a difference? Sign up to volunteer, organize a collection drive, make a donation, or help to spread the word. ❤️

In the month of January, we had 1699 visits to our food pantry. We gifted 51,483 meals to our neighbors in need already this year. This past month we fed 2,314 people, 876 children, 64 seniors, and welcomed 66 new families.

Thank you to our special Food Pantry helpers this month:

South Fork Bakery

Golden Pear

Citarella

Merrill Lynch

HAPCO Fresh from the Start

Peconic Prime Meats

Help us restock our shelves by hosting a food drive or making a monthly donation to support our food purchases. THANKS to your generous donations, we are able to purchase extra food from our wholesalers and local retailers so all of our customers can put healthy food on their tables.

January is one of the hardest months for many in our community. Our seasonal economy is at its lowest, and the cost of home heating is at its highest. Thanks to your support, we can be the friend our neighbors turn to in times of need.

This month, with your help, we provided 22 families struggling to make ends meet with direct support for rent, home utility bills, or other basic essentials.

On February 11th, we will host a free clothing and resource fair for our clients. We would greatly appreciate any donated clothing items for us to share. We have over 600 people signed up to receive clothing already. We accept new and gently used clothing on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays between 9 - 2 or by appointment.

A special thank you for collecting clothing items this month:

COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT
