Amid rising inflation, an increase in food prices, and an impossible rental housing market here on the East End of Long Island, we continually adjust our approach to make sure our clients receive the care and attention they deserve. Families can receive at least $600 a month in food support from our pantry. We distribute real, delicious, and nutritious food. We are so grateful for the weekly food deliveries from our partners/distributors: Astor Distribution, HAPCO Farms/Fresh From The Start, Island Harvest, and Long Island Cares. Every week a group of dedicated volunteers pre-pack grocery bags full of non-perishables, fresh produce, meat, and dairy that are distributed Wednesdays and Fridays from 10AM-12PM. Our Assistance Program has also seen a dramatic increase in requests. Whether it’s a missed utility bill due to an unexpected layoff or having trouble making rent as a result of a medical issue, we can help bridge the gap for families so that they don’t continue to fall farther behind. Clients know they can turn to us when they have nowhere else to go. At the start of 2023 we had our busiest month ever in our 42-year history. We continually see more and more new families coming to register at our pantry to receive food weekly. In a typical month we register around 25 new families, but by the end of February we registered 153 new families already in 2023. Today we have over 2,000 registered households consisting of 6,068 people that depend on us.  In 2022, we successfully distributed 224,391 meals to registered customers, compared to 176,413 meals in 2021.
