Each year the Community FoodBank of New Jersey relies on volunteers to help continue its mission of fighting hunger throughout New Jersey. Come join us to make this Holiday Season a cheerful time for others. The Food Bank of NJ and the Harvard Club of NJ are inviting volunteers to sort and repackage holiday meals for distribution to families statewide. The HCNJ has an opening for 40 volunteers for a 2 hour period on Sat., December 17^th, 11:30 am - 1:30 pm. Snacks will be served. 

This year, the HCNJ will also accept any donations of new children’s clothing (shirt, pant, dress, etc.) or coats, in sizes 4 - 14, for the FoodBank’s children’s store.  All donations must be unwrapped.  Bringing a donation is not required to attend this volunteer event, but would be appreciated. 

Guidelines

Free of Charge.

Must be 12 years old or over.

Dress code is casual. Layers are suggested.  Sneakers or comfortable shoes (no sandals or open toes).

Because of the limited number of volunteers allowed per shift, registration will be on a first-come first-serve basis.

Parking is available alongside the FoodBank building.
