It always
feels good to give back to your community through volunteer work. Whether you take
interest in animal
welfare, providing food for the hungry, or contributing
to programs for families and children
in need, there are many ways to get involved in community service efforts in
the Patchogue area. To help give you some ideas, we’ve selected a list of some
upcoming events and organizations that you may want to get involved with.
If you have a soft spot in your heart for
animals in need, then the Town
of Brookhaven Animal Shelter may be a place you’d like to donate
your time. Dedicated to helping homeless
dogs and cats in the township, the Town of Brookhaven Animal Shelter provides
shelter for pets in need, and also partners with private humane societies and
other organizations to provide veterinary care and training programs. If you’d
like to get involved and volunteer at the shelter, please click here to learn
more.
If you take interest to helping the less fortunate in your
area, you may want to check out the Patchogue Neighbors Inn. The Inn’s mission
is to feed hungry and homeless Long Islanders by offering different meals each
day of the week. The Patchogue Neighbors Inn operates out of five locations in
the Patchogue area, and each location is looking to add volunteers to their
food preparation and serving teams. If you would like to take part in the
Patchogue Neighbor’s cause, click here for more
information.
If you’d
like to contribute to programs for children in need in your area, you should
check out the RECESS Program with the Family Services League of Suffolk County.
As a therapeutic recreation program for emotionally disturbed children, RECESS
encourages education, skill building, and learning functional responsibilities
through organized sports and games. If you’d like to learn more about the
