Helping Long Islanders In Need
October 11, 2019
At this time of year, while we are enjoying time with our friends and family, it is important that we pause to remember those who are in need. The holidays can be a stressful and unhappy time for some families and it is my hope that we can all work together to make sure that our community joins to help our neighbors who are less fortunate.
Please use the links on this page to help bring some happiness to a local family. Along with links to worthy organizations, my office has also included links to important information about making donations to charitable organizations and how to protect your family from possible fraud.
I hope this section is helpful and wish everyone a happy and healthy holiday season.
Sincerely,
John Flanagan
