They are committed to expand their desire to serve others locally and regionally through their organization.
Their newest project The People's Pantry Market located in Oyster Bay, NY offers guests a client choice pantry option. Guests can shop for groceries themselves as they browse around the beautifully decorated market. There are plenty of volunteers on staff to help guests make healthy food choice options as well as carry out volunteers to bring bags to their cars.
