Food Pantry

About the Pantry: 

To serve our residents in need, The Department of Human Services operates an emergency food pantry that supplies food on a monthly basis to those in need of the service. The pantry operates by donation only and relies on community donations. Over the years, the pantry has continued to thrive through donations received from local Girl Scout and Boy Scout troops, churches, community groups, schools, residents and drives hosted by Town officials.

Pantry guests can visit once per month and must provide current, valid identification at the time of pickup. Our services operate by donation only and guests must be Town of Babylon residents.

How to Donate: 

Please bring non-perishable food items, canvas shopping bags, small toiletries and grocery store gift cards to any of our donation centers: Department of Human Services, 1 Commerce Boulevard in Amityville; Town Council Office, 200 E. Sunrise Highway in Lindenhurst; Old Town Hall, 47 W. Main Street - Suite 2 in Babylon Village.
