Volunteers came together today at the Mercy Soup Kitchen in Wyandanch to make sure no Long Islander goes hungry. "I've been coming here 25 years, but now I'm kind of better but now I want to help people," says Robert Nesbitt, with the Mercy Soup Kitchen. "The food here is so good and we're treated so nice, you can't help but come back here."

Volunteers at the Mercy Soup Kitchen served nearly 120 community members in need.

It's one of the oldest soup kitchens on the island and almost entirely made up of volunteers.

"A lot of the people have nowhere to go. If we're not open, they don't eat," says President of the Mercy Soup Kitchen Vito Colletti. "We are very blessed we feel it and it's important to show our families the importance of giving back to the community," says volunteer Mary Resnick.

The Mercy Soup Kitchen served traditional Christmas dinners today with turkey, ham and all the fixings. "We give these people things they don't get all the time," says volunteer and chief Michael Quarlena.

Volunteers say their work goes beyond just holidays and they're grateful to help those in need.

Some have been volunteering there for over a decade. "I'm here five days a week and I just love seeing their faces when they have a good meal," says Quarlena.
