Help us fight hunger this holiday season

Many of us are knee-deep in cookie recipes, party planning or groceries for big family meals. But not everyone looks forward to special food-centered moments during the holidays. Last year, the Food Bank of South Jersey – which serves Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Salem counties – had food requests from nearly 200,000 members of our community.

Many of us are knee-deep in cookie recipes, party planning or groceries for big family meals. But not everyone looks forward to special food-centered moments during the holidays.

Last year, the Food Bank of South Jersey – which serves Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Salem counties – had food requests from nearly 200,000 members of our community. You can do your part to help restock food pantry shelves this season, and make it possible for many families to eat well during the holidays.

For more than a decade, the Courier-Post has joined with our community to help fight hunger in our region.

Feed Our Neighbors, our holiday food drive, runs through Monday, Jan. 2.

Drop off non-perishable food items in our lobby at 301 Cuthbert Boulevard, across from Camden Catholic, weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. All donations will be transported to the Food Bank throughout the month, to help the Food Bank meet holiday needs and restock empty shelves.
