Oyster Bay Town Board members are urging residents to support local veterans by donating to a Veteran Food Collection Drive in support of disadvantaged hometown heroes.
From Oct. 1 to Oct. 31, residents are invited to drop-off non-perishable food items at collection boxes located in Town Hall South in Massapequa (977 Hicksville Road in Massapequa) and Town Hall North in Oyster Bay (54 Audrey Ave. in Oyster Bay).
“Donating to a veteran food collection drive helps provide essential support to those who have bravely served our nation but now face food insecurity,” Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joe Saladino said. “Your contribution ensures that veterans and their families receive the nutrition they need to thrive and recover from challenging circumstances. By giving back, you honor their sacrifices and make a meaningful difference in their lives.”
Drop-off locations are open from 9 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. weekdays. This Veteran Food Collection Drive is hosted in partnership with AMVEST Post 88 in Massapequa. For more information, please call (516) 624-6380 or email [email protected].
