A Day of Love & Compassion to Fight Food Insecurity in NJ

 

On February 14, volunteers from our member banks joined us for a Day of Love & Compassion to benefit the Community FoodBank of New Jersey and its affiliates across the state. 

 

More than 100 bankers volunteered their time preparing meals, packing boxes with food, and more. A special thank you to the banks that participated: Blue Foundry Bank, Columbia Bank, Flagstar Bank, First Bank, Kearny Bank, Manasquan Bank, OceanFirst Bank, Spencer Savings Bank, and Valley Bank.

 

This effort is part of NJBankers’ One Million Meals Campaign, which to date, has raised nearly 900,000 meals for children, families and seniors in New Jersey. To learn how you can help us bring our campaign home strong and reach our goal of 1 Million Meals, click here.
