The Mission of Long Island Cares is to bring together all available resources for the benefit of the hungry on Long Island.  Long Island Cares provides emergency food where and when it is needed, sponsors programs that help families achieve self-sufficiency, and educates the general public about the causes and consequences of hunger on Long Island.

Long Island Cares relies on the generosity and strong support of the individuals, corporations, and foundations that make up our community.  We are deeply grateful to the many who join with us and support our commitment to strengthen and secure the future of our community by providing a healthier and more meaningful life to those among us in need.
