Oyster Bay To Launch Veteran Food Collection Drive

OYSTER BAY, NY — The Town of Oyster Bay announced the Veteran Food Collection Drive to support disadvantaged hometown heroes, Supervisor Joseph Saladino and the town board announced.

From Oct. 1 through Oct. 31, town residents are invited to drop off non-perishable food items at collection boxes located in Town Hall South in Massapequa, at 977 Hicksville Road, Massapequa; and Town Hall North in Oyster Bay, at 54 Audrey Ave. 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," Saladino said in a news release. "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."

is hosted in partnership with AMVEST Post 88 in Massapequa.
