NY Islanders team up with Island Harvest

New York Islanders goaltender Rick DiPietro, left, along with Head Coach Ted Nolan and General Manager Garth Snow, recently joined Island Harvest, Long Island's Source Authority on Food Rescue, at a community food drive in Carle Place as part of Island Harvest's annual Turkey and Trimmings Campaign to help provide warm, nutritious meals to those in need this holiday season.

Families and individuals also supported the campaign, which ran through December 24, by stopping by one of the numerous supermarket food collection events, bringing non-perishable food donations to local drop-off locations including Citibank, The Bristal Assisted Living, and Panera Bread (frozen

turkeys only), donating a turkey or their supermarket turkey coupon. Monetary contributions were also welcomed to help support Island Harvest's year-round food donation

programs. Events took place throughout Nassau and Suffolk Counties during the campaign. For more information go online at www.islandharvest.org. or by calling 516-294-8528.
