It's been one year since we moved into our new home on Meeting House Lane. The space has been a godsend for us and our customers! Over the past 12 months, we have had 17,850 visits to our pantry and provided 502,909 meals to neighbors in need.

Our food pantry is open to the public on Wednesdays at 44 Meeting House Lane and Fridays at the SUNY Stony Brook Southampton campus from 10 am to 12 noon or by appointment any day at our Meeting House Lane office. Our groceries provide nearly 40 meals a week for an average family. In the month of June, we provided 35,576 meals worth of food to our customers.

In the summer months, we provide additional food for children to ensure no child goes hungry due to the lack of school meals they depend on during the school year. Each family can receive an extra bag of kid-friendly food thanks to your donations and the support of a grant from the

Southampton Bath and Tennis Charitable Foundation.

Your gifts allow everyone in our community to put healthy food on the table, week after week.

Want to do more to help us have enough food? Sign Up if you are willing to pick up food from a local retailer that wants to donate to us.

IT's A PARTY!

Join us for our 4th annual Moonlit Plunge on Thursday, July 10th, at the famed Coopers Beach. $60 per person. Sponsorship opportunities available.

Don't miss the best night of the summer! If you have joined us before, you understand the excitement. If not, guests of all ages will love the fun beach party vibe, burgers from Coopers Beach Shack, taking the plunge (optional) with hundreds of new friends, dancing along with DJ Rah-G-Raj, and sitting around the bonfire at the end of the night.

A big thank you to Southampton Village Mayor and Board of Trustees, Coopers Beach Shack, Shippy's Restaurant, and the Southampton Village Ocean Rescue Squad for their help to make the event possible!

For many kids, summer is something to look forward to. But for a lot of the children we serve, it is a time of loneliness and uncertainty. Parents are busy working, and the high cost of camps and lack of transportation often means low-income families cannot participate.

On top of that, kids are missing the school meals they depend on at school. We need your help to ensure no child goes hungry this summer! Your support of our Lunchbox Kids program helps us to feed nearly 1,000 kids every month.

Each summer, we are committed to providing an extra bag containing 5 meals for local children, along with the regular 3 bags of groceries provided to families each week. The food we are able to offer is dependent on community support.

Together, we can ensure all children have a fun, healthy, and enriching summer. Will you join us in giving local kids great, nutritious food and a stress-free summer?

Want to get involved? We would love to have student and adult volunteers helping this summer. Fill out a volunteer application here.

COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT

We love partnering with Southampton Schools to ensure all students and their families are well taken care of! 🤍

Students recently built a little free pantry and our volunteers Nathan and Kai were happy to help get it stocked.
