Where To Volunteer This Winter In Bergen County

Editor’s note: The Hoboken Girl included Table to Table in a social media post/list about Where to Volunteer This Winter in Bergen County.

Giving back is always in season, but on MLK Day it’s important to reflect [on] how we are serving our communities.

From food pantries and animal shelters to arts programs and environmental, these local NJ organizations to volunteer at this winter.

Table to Table is New Jersey’s first and largest food rescue nonprofit, bridging the gap between food being wasted and people facing food insecurity. We bring rescued fresh, nutritious food to 303 community partners, including social service organizations, pantries, shelters, fresh produce markets and centralized distribution hubs. Food is provided free of charge. Through this, Table to Table touches a diversity of those in need, including families, children, veterans, and older adults, making good nutrition accessible while serving as a stimulus for other longer-term benefits. Since 1999 we have rescued more than 120,700 tons of nutritious food—enough for 241,400,846 million meals—and delivered it to our neighbors in need, saving over 544 metric tons of methane saved.
