A Long Island charity closed its doors today.
Jacob's Light in Ronkonkoma had been sending care packages to hundreds of thousands of service men and women for the past decade.
The charity was started by the mother of Jacob Fletcher, who was killed in Iraq in 2003.
Over the past few years, donor support and grants have fallen and the charity can no longer meet its budget.
