Lynbrook PBA Donates To Local Food Pantries

Members of the Lynbrook PBA stopped by two local food pantries on April 7 to drop off the organization's annual food donations for the Easter season. In doing so, the Lynbrook PBA hopes to raise awareness to how much help local food pantries provide to local residents.

"The food goes out as fast as it comes in,” said Deacon Rich Lorossa, leader of the St. Raymond's Parish Social Ministry. “You would be amazed at how many people need our help."

Sister Barbara Faber, leader of The Our Lady of Peace Parish Social Ministry, agreed and added, "We will take donations year round and they always go very quickly."

Both pantries are open daily until 3 p.m. and have drop-off containers to take donations after hours. Our Lady of Peace's Parish Social Ministry can be accessed using the Fowler Avenue Entrance to Our Lady of Peace Church, while St. Raymond's Parish Social Ministry is located at 12 Roosevelt Ave., the house just behind St. Raymond's Church along Roosevelt Avenue.
