Community Involvement

Community Involvement at Friends for Life

At Friends for Life Homecare, the heart and soul of our business lies in our unwavering commitment to the community.

As a family-run organization, we intimately understand what it means to care for loved ones. Our passion for helping others and our deep-rooted connection to our neighbors drive everything we do.

We don’t just serve the community—we are part of it. We believe in creating bonds that make you feel like our Friends for Life, even before you need our services.

Our commitment extends far beyond just Massapequa, reaching across the island to make a positive impact wherever we can. From providing resources and support to creating moments of joy, Friends for Life Homecare stands out as a beacon of care, compassion, and connection.

Empowering Caregivers

  • Free Caregiver Support Groups: We host ongoing support groups for caregivers, open to everyone in the community. These groups provide a safe space to share experiences, find guidance, and build connections.

Recognized Leadership

Our very own Vice President, Amy Recco, exemplifies our commitment to the community. Her extraordinary efforts have earned her five Women of Distinction Awards from the Town of Oyster Bay and Nassau County, solidifying her reputation as a true community champion.

Why We Stand Out

At Friends for Life, we don’t just participate in our community—we are deeply invested in its well-being. Our partnerships, events, and initiatives are driven by our belief that everyone deserves care, kindness, and support.

From delivering meals to organizing large-scale events, we go above and beyond to ensure our neighbors feel valued and connected.
