Food Pantry Donations

Did you know that in Union county there are 69,260 people that do not have enough food to fulfill an active and healthy life style?  

To address this issue, we are collecting food donations for our Park Middle School, Seventh Grade Service Learning Project.  The food pantry is located at Saint Bartholomew the Apostle Church on Westfield Avenue, in Scotch Plains.

They need all kinds of canned and jarred foods like: canned meats, peanut butter, pasta, hot and cold cereals, rice, baby food, granola bars, beans, syrups, and jelly.

Please help us fulfill this community need and thank you for your participation in our food drive.
