Good Local News - Raritan Food Pantry Expands Offerings for Those in Need

The Raritan Food Pantry announced on their social media new additions to their pantry. The non-profit received a grant that allowed them to purchase a brand-new commercial fridge AND freezer. https://www.raritanfoodpantry.org/

With these new additions, the goal is to help clients-self-serve as they shop, which has been part of their mission of providing essentials while preserving the dignity of clients.

From Raritan Food Pantry, "We would like to extend a huge thank you to those who have donated fridges/freezers to us over the last 3 years, as they were essential in getting us to where we are today.

And a super big thank you to the following folks who helped the enormous job of getting these monsters into the pantry and set up: Heath, Ken, Wes, Mattias, Alex, and two mystery good samaritans who saw us struggling and jumped in to help! More great surprises to come!"
