The mission of the Long Island Community Foundation is to enhance the well-being
of the people and communities of Long Island.

The Foundation does this by:

 

  • Providing leadership in the identification of current and future community needs, and building a permanent endowment to address these needs;
  • Strengthening, through effective grantmaking and technical assistance, the capacity of the Island’s not-for-profit sector to respond to community needs;
  • Offering comprehensive services to donors, thereby supporting and enhancing their philanthropy;
  • Working cooperatively with others seeking to encourage philanthropy on Long Island, or otherwise to support the mission of the Foundation.

How We've Helped
Instrumental in the start up of well-known organizations

Interfaith Nutrition Network
The INN (Interfaith Nutrition Network) addresses the issues of hunger and homelessness on Long Island by providing food, shelter, long-term housing, and supportive services in a dignified and respectful manner for those who seek our help. We are a not-for-profit, volunteer-based organization with a dedicated staff, a broad base of community support and a commitment to educate the public about these issues.
