FEED SOUTH JERSEY – A STRONGER FUTURE STARTS HERE

For 40 years, the Food Bank of South Jersey has been a vital source of nourishment, support, and connection for our region. As we honor this legacy, we’re also looking ahead with a bold, three-part initiative designed to ensure that every person in South Jersey can access the food and resources they need to thrive now and for the next 40 years.

Our Feed South Jersey campaign is more than an anniversary milestone, it’s a blueprint for the future.

Rooted in community, driven by innovation, and focused on long-term impact, this campaign stands on three strong pillars:

BUILDING A SPACE FOR OUR COMMUNITY

At the heart of the campaign is a transformative plan: to create a centralized Center for Health, Wellness & Nutrition. This new space will be more than just a building – it will be a hub for direct service, hands-on learning, and deeper community engagement.

With dedicated areas for nutrition education, cooking demonstrations, volunteer activities, and more, this center will bring together partners, neighbors, and families in a shared commitment to well-being. By investing in this space, we’re strengthening our roots and expanding our reach.

EXPANDING HUNGER-RELIEF INITIATIVES

The need in South Jersey continues to evolve – and we’re evolving with it. This pillar of the campaign supports the growth of our direct service programs, mobile distributions, and school-based partnerships.

From increasing access to culturally relevant foods to reaching more older adults and children with tailored services, our goal is simple: make it easier for every neighbor to get the nutritious food they need. With your help, we’re expanding capacity, improving infrastructure, and closing critical gaps in service.

THE SOUTH JERSEY HUNGER RELIEF FUND

Long-term impact requires long-term stability. The South Jersey Hunger Relief Fund is our commitment to the future – an endowment-style fund that ensures the Food Bank can continue to serve with strength and resilience for generations to come. This fund will support operational viability, provide flexibility to respond to emerging needs, and safeguard our mission against economic uncertainty. This investment helps guarantee that South Jersey’s food security remains a priority today, tomorrow, and always.
