Community Outreach

We are so grateful to all who help our neighbors in need!

This holiday season, some of our neighbors will find themselves in the unimaginable position of not being able to provide Christmas for their families. Fortunately, generous  folks like you can help!

Last year, thanks to students at Center Moriches Schools, and the financial generosity of local businesses, foundations, and community members who donated or adopted a child or family, MCC provided food, toys, clothing, or other items to 53 local families in need during the holidays! Every gift of time, talent or money contributed to the success of the 2020 “Santa’s Workshop” holiday community outreach program, and the families who received were so thankful for your kindness and caring.

The 2022 Holiday Outreach season has begun! And thanks to a very generous anonymous donor, your kind gift through Dec. 31, 2022 will be matched, up to $20,000!

Here are ways you can “Help someone today” and show you care:

• Make a secure donation at our website: www.morichescommunitycenter.org
• Donate nonperishable foods to the Center Moriches elementary and middle school food drives until Nov. 17
• Mail a check or prepaid gift card to Moriches Community Center, PO Box 22, Center Moriches, NY 11934 to help our shoppers purchase Christmas wish list items for the families
• Adopt or sponsor a child or family’s wish list (email us to learn how at )
• Help Moriches Community Center shop for gifts, or wrap gifts for families on Dec. 17th
• Purchase Tend Coffee Booster Blend coffee at the link here: https://morichescommunitycenter.org/product/tend-coffee/
