Would you like to play a critical role in making sure people don't go hungry? Become a food collector!
CUMAC regularly feeds 3,100 food insecure clients a month... long story short, it takes a lot of food to make sure everbody who comes to us has enough! Holding a collection is a fun and rewarding way to ensure we can get food to those who need it most.
Collection can be held anywhere: work, school, your religious home, at your local grocery store. They offer a chance to use your creativity and organization skills in an incredibly rewarding way.
CUMAC will happily guide you through the process. Feel free to visit our website www.cumac.org for a list of needed items and collection guide. Or simply call the office at 973-742-5518 and ask for Stephanie.
As CUMAC works to feed rising numbers in this time of need, we couldn't keep up without the generosity of our collection teams. We look forward to working with you to collect food items for the hungry.
