Our Mission
We fight hunger and poverty in New Jersey by assisting those in need and seeking long-term solutions. We engage, educate and empower all sectors of society in the battle. We fill the emptiness caused by hunger with Food, Help and Hope.
Food & Nutrition Programs
More than one thousand partners – including food pantries, soup kitchens and shelters – ensure that nutritious food is available to families in need year-round.
Federal Nutrition Programs
We make sure everyone eligible for government benefits gets them by providing SNAP application assistance in our communities.
Food Service Training Academy
Our free 15-week culinary and life skills program equips students with marketable skills to earn a living wage in the food service industry.
