Right now, more than 650,000 New Jerseyans are food insecure, including 175,000 children. That’s why now more than ever, it’s important to support the fight against hunger.
With this in mind, NJBankers has chosen New Jersey’s food banks as its charity partners and is launching its 1 Million Meals campaign to benefit the Community FoodBank of New Jersey (CFBNJ), Fulfill, Food Bank of South Jersey, NORWESCAP, and Mercer Street Friends! The campaign aims to donate 200,000 meals every year for the next five years, providing a total of one million meals to feed hungry seniors, parents, and children across the state.
$1 = 3 meals. Neighbors helping neighbors. Join us to make a difference.
