Mission and programs · 2025

Mission

To bring together all available resources for the benefit of the hungry and food insecure on Long Island and, to the best of our ability, provide for the humanitarian needs of our community. Our goals are to improve food security for families, sponsor programs that help families achieve self-sufficiency, and educate the public about the root causes and consequences of hunger on Long Island.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Our mission is to bring together all available resources for the benefit of the hungry on Long Island, and provide to the best of our ability for the humanitarian needs of our community.

  • The Harry Chapin Food Bank receives, warehouses, and distributes millions of pounds of purchased and donated food from various sources to its member agencies serving Nassau and Suffolk counties. The food bank serves more than 300 member agencies, Long Island Cares extends its reach through soup kitchens, group homes, and local nonprofits that share one goal; to feed and care for our neighbors in need.

    Expenses $33,151,652

  • LICs outreach programs provide food assistance and essential support directly to communities across Nassau and Suffolk counties. Services include mobile food pantries, disaster relief, homeless outreach and homebound deliveries. These programs reduce barriers to access and help combat food insecurity with compassion and flexibility. The organization also operates pantry locations in Freeport, Huntington Station, Lindenhurst, Bethpage, Valley Stream and Hampton Bays which provide food and community outreach services to their local communities. LIC supports children with food programs and youth engagement initiatives that fight childhood hunger. From mobile school pantries and after-school meals to weekend food packs, we ensure kids have access to nutrition all year long. We proudly support veterans through food assistance and personalized referrals. Programs like Military Appreciation Tuesdays and our mobile pantry help address food insecurity and ease the transition to civilian life. We work closely with veteran service agencies to ensure every veteran gets the care and resources they deserve. LIC advocates for hunger relief and food security through the Chapin Center for Public Policy, we mobilize communities and raise awareness of the root causes of hunger across Nassau and Suffolk counties.

The first 25 listed. Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
