Food insecurity affects a large portion of Long Island’s population. We all know that access to affordable, healthy food is a major problem in low-income neighborhoods, but just how bad is it?
There has been a dramatic increase in hunger on Long Island over the past few years, with current estimates showing that one in four individuals is struggling with food insecurity. That’s right: Roughly 259,000 children, adults, and seniors will go to bed not knowing when their next meal may be.
It breaks our hearts to see families struggling with hunger, but we know we can help in some little way through our organization’s work. To fulfill this, we’re devoting our agency’s efforts to easing hunger in every way we can. We will collaborate with members of our community that share our same vision; if we work together, we can improve life on Long Island!
Simply recommend friends and family to us for an insurance quotation, and we’ll donate $10 to help feed these food-insecure families! Together, we can make a real difference – for everyone!
