This month we realized we have consistently had 30% more families visiting our food pantry each month over last year.

With the rising cost of food, gas, and all household expenses it is no surprise families are really struggling to keep up. Thanks to loving neighbors like YOU, we are able to provide food, essential items, and most importantly a friendly place to turn in a time of need!

In the month of May, we have been happy to see that our customers are working more. Fewer people are coming to the pantry each week during our normal distribution times. However, with the high cost of living and rising prices of food, gas, and housing in the area, families still need our support. Our staff and volunteers have been delivering groceries to more families so they can focus on working as much as they can.

We are so grateful to the Southampton Little League for hosting a food drive for us at their 2022 Opening Day Celebration.

Later this week the Southampton Intermediate School will host their annual Run Against Hunger to help us continue to provide food for those in need. To join these great young supporters, you can give online to

The food we provide is dependent on community support. If you would like to host a food drive or donation drive for us, please reach out by clicking here!

This month we provided school concert attire and prom dresses and suits to students in Southampton and Hampton Bays Schools. We are so happy to help local children feel confident during their big life moments. Thank you to everyone that donated and especially Ari's Closet for their help in collecting!

Our Assistance Program serves local children, adults, and families with a wide range of support. Here are a few expenses we covered that demonstrate the impact this program makes on people's lives: 

  • Arranged for medical rides for prenatal care for expectant young mother

  • Paid outstanding medical bills for a low-income senior with cancer

  • Replaced a broken stove for a local family

  • Paid a cell phone bill for a homeless man
