The spring Scouting For Food event is almost here! Last year, Nutley Family Service Bureau partnered with the Nutley Scouts and 120 enthusiastic volunteers to receive over 28,000 non perishable food items. This year, with your help, we hope to top that effort! Bags of food donations will be collected, dropped off and processed on Saturday, March 30th, at the Franklin Reformed Church, 45 Hillside Crescent, Nutley, NJ 07110. (We will move to the Nutley Bike Shop on Franklin Avenue to organize the items). That is just the beginning! Processing the items for the Food Pantry shelves will be ongoing thru April.

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.
