Schwartzapfel Partners has contributed to Island Harvest in the past. But when calling to arrange this year’s donation, the firm learned the relief organization needed a minimum of 150 pounds in order to arrange pick-up.

“This requirement wasn’t a problem,” Schwartzapfel said. “We were able to collect and donate a full 250 pounds.”

The firm's entire staff contributed to the food donation. The firm is active in a variety of civic events and has contributed to more than 40 charities, foundations and community groups, including March of Dimes, Schneider Children’s Hospital, Habitat for Humanity and The Nature Conservancy.

Island Harvest is the largest Hunger Relief organization on Long Island. In addition to collecting and distributing food, the organization conducts educational programs to increase hunger awareness and reduce food waste. For two years, the organization has received a four star rating – the highest awarded – from Charity Navigator, America’s largest independent evaluator of charities.
