Faces of Hunger: Military Appreciation Tuesdays/Sandy Recovery

A United States Navy Veteran’s family has been frequenting Long Island Cares since their home was devastated by Super Storm Sandy in 2012. When a landlord refused to repair the damages, our veteran and family found themselves facing financial duress they have never known. But after receiving much needed products from our South Shore Service Center, this lovely family has reported “finally seeing the light.” The money they have saved through supplementing their food with food from our organization has been significant in allowing them to begin paying off loans and repair bills that have haunted them since the storm.
