Fight Summer Hunger In Essex County!

It’s Summer - But Hunger Doesn’t Take A Vacation
Support the 18 interfaith MEND food pantries here in Essex County

Mend   meeting emergency needs with dignity

Summer time is always a challenging time for the 18 food pantries we support in Essex County. Donations usually drop and the number of people we serve grows. School children who are fed two meals a day through school programs lose that help in the summer and turn to us.  In 2013 our MEND pantries fed over 90,000 Essex County residents in need.

Please join us to support our neighbors here in Essex County who need our help.  You can purchase the food you want to donate here at this website and it will be delivered directly to our MEND pantries. All of the food items available are the things we really need - including fresh produce!  Thank you.
