BACK TO SCHOOL NUT BUTTER & JELLY DRIVE AT THE NUTLEY LIBRARY
Nutley Public Library is collecting Nut Butters & Jelly to support the NFSB Food Pantry. Other items, such as hot and cold cereal, canned tuna & chicken always are in short supply, too. So drop off an item when you drop off a book and help kick off a nutritious effort to keep the shelves stocked now that school is back in session. Ongoing until September 27th. NFSB appreciates the continued generosity of the Library and the community.
NFSB appreciates donated staples to stock our shelves:
Canned Beans, Tuna, Chicken, Peanut Butter & Jelly, Hot & Cold Cereals, Pasta & Sauce
The Pantry is the recipient of the generosity from individuals, civic organizations, churches and Nutley Township organizations. The Boy Scouts of America have been a long-time supporter and over the past several years their Scouting for Food Drive has raised over 50,000 non-perishable food items, making them the largest single contributing organization to our pantry. We are additionally grateful to Greenutley, Nutley Farmers Market, Nutley Community Garden, The Giving Garden and NFSB Girl’s Leadership Garden for their support. Nutley ShopRite sponsorship of NFSB Food Pantry via their Partner’s in Caring Grant provides staples throughout the year.
