The Community FoodBank of New Jersey

Call Website

The Community FoodBank of New Jersey The Community FoodBank of New Jersey (CFBNJ) is the state’s largest anti-hunger organization, which has been delivering food, help, and hope for 50 years.

Last year, CFBNJ provided nutritious food for over 90 million meals. The Community FoodBank of New Jersey, a member of Feeding America, provides people across the state with food, help and hope. As the state's largest anti-hunger and anti-poverty organization, CFBNJ distributed enough food for more than 85 million nutritious meals last year, 34% of which was fresh produce. In seeking long-term solutions to end hunger in our state, CFBNJ provides many other services, including job training and nutrition education. For our neighbors, especially families, and for the volunteers and donors who support them, the Community FoodBank of New Jersey is the powerful agent of change that fills the emptiness caused by hunger and provides resources that are essential to earning a sustainable living.

We asked speakers and chairs at our Women Fighting Hunger Luncheons to share their biggest takeaways.

What began 11 years ago as a single Luncheon has grown into a statewide movement, expanding to South Jersey five years ago. The growing support and engagement have been so heartening.

This year’s conversation between Priya Fielding-Singh, author of How the Other Half Eats, and Elizabeth McCarthy, President & CEO highlighted a powerful truth: all parents want their children to be healthy, happy, and well-fed, but access to resources shapes the choices families can make.

We were reminded of the realities of food insecurity and the impact we can have when we unite to fight hunger.

What would you do with $77 to feed a family of four for a week?

Buy the heart-healthy food your son needs?
Celebrate your daughter's birthday?
Stretch every dollar and hope it's enough?

For Sophia, a working mom of two, these aren't hypothetical questions. They're real-life decisions.

At this year's Women Fighting Hunger Luncheon, we will shine a light on the difficult choices many working families face every day. Hunger doesn't always look the way we expect. Sometimes it's a family with jobs, children, and a budget that simply doesn't stretch far enough. Join us and be part of the solution.

Hunger Action Month is a powerful reminder that fighting hunger takes all of us. While September brings greater awareness to food insecurity, the reality is that hunger impacts individuals and families EVERY month of the year.

That’s why our commitment can’t end when September does. 🧡 We need our employees, volunteers, and community partners to keep showing up, lending a hand, and taking action. Every month is an opportunity to make a difference and help ensure everyone has access to the food they need.

Let’s keep the momentum going, not just this month, but all year long.
