Working tirelessly to combat hunger in NJ

There are more than 1.1 million food insecure people living in New Jersey. Of those, more than 1/3 of them are children. As an organization, we believe that no one should go hungry in one of the wealthiest countries in the world, especially in our backyard. These startling statistics are the driving force behind our unwavering determination to minimize—if not eliminate—hunger in our community.

It helps a lot because food is very expensive. I love fresh vegetables and fruit. It’s important to eat fresh produce. If I didn’t come here, I wouldn’t be able to afford it.

I can feed my family. My husband was working at a gas station, and he was shot while at work in 2020. Since then, he’s been in a nursing home. He cannot speak. He cannot walk. (He is bedridden).
