With SNAP benefits set to expire on November 1, over 800,000 New Jerseyans who rely on the program could go without food assistance with the holidays just around the corner. Across the state, many are stepping up to provide food or hot meals to those in need. We put together a comprehensive list of NJ food banks, pantries and soup kitchens in each county.
So, if you need a meal, or you’d like to donate some food to those in need, this list is for you.
