Seniors Can Get Free I.D. Cards at Library

Sen. Charles J. Fuschillo, Jr., R-Merrick, Sen. Kemp Hannon, R-Garden City, are joining Nassau County Executive Ed Mangano in sponsoring a free Senior ID Card Program in Farmingdale. 

The program will be held from 1- 4 p.m. on Thursday, April 25 at the Farmingdale Library, located at 116 Merritts Road in Farmingdale.
Nassau County residents ages 65 and over are eligible to participate and
receive a free senior ID card. No appointments are necessary.

The program allows seniors to obtain a free wallet-sized ID card
which includes a photo, the holder’s personal contact information (name,
address, phone number, date of birth), and an emergency contact name and
phone number which could be useful to emergency responders.

Seniors can carry the card in their wallet so that emergency responders will know who to contact if the senior is in an emergency situation and cannot
communicate.

Residents who would like more information about the Free Senior ID Card program on April 25 can call Sen. Fuschillo’s office at 516-882-0630 or Sen. Hannon’s office at 516-739-1700.
