First Stop Food Pantries in Farmingdale, NY, is dedicated to providing essential food assistance to individuals and families facing food insecurity. Our emergency food pantries offer up to five days’ worth of nutritious food to those in need, while also connecting them to vital community resources such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Child Health Plus, WIC, and various assistance programs for heating, utilities, and employment. We invite the public to seek help at the nearest location and emphasize safety by limiting visits to six families at a time, ensuring a supportive and caring environment for everyone. Together, we strive to meet the basic needs of our community, fostering hope and resilience in challenging times.
