Caring Volunteers from "A Need We Feed" Bring Meals to Vulnerable Residents in Ocean County, NJ
Description
A Need We Feed is a small, but mighty nonprofit at the New Jersey Shore whose volunteers bring meals to Ocean County residents living at the federal poverty level, who don't qualify for help from other programs. Many of the organization's clients are veterans, homebound elderly, and families living in motels.
From local restaurants, A Need We Feed purchases boxes of individually packaged meals which volunteers then split up into bags for delivery.
A Need We Feed began in 2012 after Superstorm Sandy devastated much of the Jersey Shore, by providing meals to first responders.
The cost of living is already high in New Jersey, and the recent rise in the price of groceries has meant more residents are struggling to put food on the table.
To help fight hunger and food insecurity, A Need We Feed welcomes additional restaurant partners, monetary donations, and volunteers.
