Emergency Assistance
In partnership with FEMA and the Salvation Army we provide funds for short-term emergency shelter, utility payment, rental assistance, arbitration, and medication assistance to families and individuals in need.

Food Pantry
As part of a county-wide Nutritional Alliance in partnership with St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church, Mercer Street Friends Food Bank, and Whole Foods Market, we maintain a year-round pantry of perishable and non-perishable food, as well as personal care items and baby supplies.
Our Food Pantry patrons have also benefitted from the very generous donations from Church & Dwight Co., NJ Farmers Against Hunger, The Windsor-Hightstown Area Ministerium (WHAM), ShopRite of East Windsor, Target#1345 of East Windsor, L’Oreal USA, Shiseido America, Conair Corp., 1st Presbyterian Church of Hightstown and St. David’s Episcopal Church.

Once eligibility is determined, families are entitled to visit the pantry on a weekly basis. The pantry is located at 225 Franklin Street in Hightstown, NJ. Hours are Mon. - Wed. 9am - 12pm.
