To help alleviate food insecurity, Port Washington-based Peter & Jeri Dejana Foundation donated $100,000 to Long Island Cares, Inc – The Harry Chapin Regional Food Bank, which is headquartered in Hauppauge.

The funding is to support Long Island Cares’ Nassau County food pantries, supplying toiletries and household supplies. It will also support the organization’s Veterans Project with food, toiletries and household supplies.
