Blessings Across Long Island

now includes Longwood Blessings

Blessings in a Backpack is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to mobilizing communities, individuals, and resources to provide weekend meals for school-aged children across America who might otherwise go hungry. By distributing non-perishable, child-friendly food every Friday, the organization helps bridge the nutritional gap for children who rely on school meals as their primary food source.

Blessings Across Long Island is a local initiative under the national Blessings in a Backpack umbrella, which provides weekend food for students in the Longwood School District, Sachem School District, Long Island Head Start, Tri-CYA in Huntington, and David Patterson at Hempstead School District.

YOU are the magic that keeps hunger-free weekends going all year long.
