Looking to get help from – or get involved with – Long Island Cares – The Harry Chapin Food Bank? Then we would like to hear from you. We operate out of three locations, which also house three emergency food pantries as well as our pet pantries: our Huntington location, the Nassau Service Center in Freeport and the South Shore Service Center in Lindenhurst. If you are in need of emergency food, these three food pantries act as emergency pickup locations.
