Help Your Neighbors, Donate to Food Pantry

A generous amount of donations of groceries continue to come in but items go fast and supplies are still low.

The Hasbrouck Heights Food Pantry, which regularly helps about 40 families, continues to be in need of donations as food and other supplies are said to still be low over the summer months.

Since the first call for help went out earlier this season, the Borough Clerk's office has reported an overwhelming amount of food and gift cards has been donated, however items have been going fast and more is needed to keep the shelves stocked.

The food pantry is still presently in need of everything including but not limited to non-perishable items such as beans, canned fruits and vegetables, soups, rice, peanut butter, jelly, tomato sauce, gravies, instant mashed potatoes, coffee, tea, powdered milk, juices, toiletries, cleaning products, soaps and paper products.
