2018 Food Stock!
Summer is often a time of increased hunger and need and fewer donations of critical food supplies. YOU can help!
We need volunteers to collection food or run a local food drive to collect food for donation to local food pantries throughout Sussex County. Getting involved is EASY!
Simply sign up to collect food donations or to run a food drive anytime in the May and early June timeframe. Then once you collect the food, simply drop it off at the United Way of Northern New Jersey office in Newton on or before June 8, 2018. The office is located in the New Jersey Herald Building, 2 Spring Street, Newton.
If you would like to assist in the sorting and organizing of the food items on the morning of June 8th, we would welcome that as well.
Please sign up TODAY to help your neighbors who are hungry to have access to needed food staples!

Mission Statement
United Way mobilizes the caring power of communities to advance the common good. We improve lives and community conditions by assessing needs, developing solutions, raising funds, convening partners, and mobilizing citizens to act.
Description
We believe that improving life for all starts with improving life for ALICE.
ALICE is...
An acronym: ALICE represents the growing number of families who are Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. Despite working - oftentimes at more than one job - these households are unable to afford the basics of housing, food, child care, health care, technology, and transportation.
When ALICE suffers and is forced to make difficult choices, we all face serious consequences. United Way is fighting for ALICE - a population that is critical to the stability of our communities. We are looking beyond temporary fixes to find solutions that result in long-term, sustainable change for individuals and families.
