LIC Relief is the collaboration of local civic, religious and business organizations working together to alleviate specific needs in our neighborhood and surrounding areas. The organization's stated goal is to mobilize neighbors to help neighbors. Knowing that one group cannot meet every need. LIC Relief was one of the first organizations to launch relief efforts in Western Queens during the COVID crisis. Through its partnership with local businesses and restaurants we provided 35,000 hot meals to people facing food insecurities all while investing over $150,000 in the local economy.
