• Teams of volunteers deliver food to the homes of 150 elderly and house bound people in Trenton and Princeton each month.
• 40 percent of the people helped in our Hunger Prevention program are 17 and under; 25 percent are age 55 and above.

Healthy Food – Together, our food pantries average 4,000 shopping visits each month. The variety of heart-healthy food filling our shelves and refrigerators includes fresh produce, eggs and milk, frozen proteins, quality baked goods, and prepared foods such as yogurts, salads and soups, and many shelf-stable canned and boxed food. Personal care products such as shampoo, soap, toothpaste and toothbrushes, diapers, and deodorant are often available.
