Supporting Neighbors in Need
PSEG Long Island and Island Harvest Food Bank are working together to combat food insecurity right here on Long Island. All summer long we will be collecting donations online and at various Stop & Shop locations all across Long Island. Why focus on summer? That’s typically when donations to local food banks decrease and kids who depend on school lunches are home.
Communities are stronger when neighbors help neighbors.
Together, we've collected more than 130,000 meals for our neighbors right here on the Island.
