Thank You!
Thank you to the thousands of customers who visited PSEG Long Island and Stop & Shop across Long Island this summer and helped make our Power to Feed Long Island program another great success! Because of your incredible generosity, we collected enough food and monetary donations to provide more than 28,000 meals to individuals and families in need across Long Island.
These meals will be distributed through Island Harvest Food Bank, helping to support our neighbors facing food insecurity. If you did not have an opportunity to donate this summer, there is still time to contribute by clicking the link below. Thank you again to our customers and local communities for making a meaningful difference in the fight against hunger.
Together, we all have the power to Feed Long Island
