First Stop Food Pantries

Long Island Cares operates its own food pantries in addition to partnering with over 320 food assistance agencies to ensure that those in need have access to nutritious food. Our pantries play a crucial role in addressing hunger within the local community. They are strategically located throughout Nassau and Suffolk County to reach as many individuals and families as possible, providing them with essential items to help alleviate food insecurity.

With a focus on providing fresh produce, protein, grains, and other essential items, these pantries allow individuals and families to access healthy and nutritious food options.
