    Hunger doesn’t take a summer vacation—neither does our commitment to fighting it!

    The Community Food Bank of NJ (CFBNJ) is celebrating 50 years of service to New Jersey communities. What better time for NAIOP New Jersey to join forces once again and make a difference?  

    NAIOP New Jersey is reintroducing the Community Action Food Drive & Volunteer Day at the Community Food Bank of NJ in Hillside, and we invite you to be part of the impact. Join over 100 of your colleagues as we sort donations, repack food and household essentials, and help distribute them to families in need across 18 NJ counties.

    Gather your colleagues, plan carpools or Uber rides, and wear your company T-shirts with pride!  This is more than a day of volunteering—it’s a chance to build connections, make a tangible difference, and take meaningful action in the fight against hunger.

    Date: July 10, 2025
    Location: Community Food Bank of NJ, Hillside

    Volunteer Shifts:

    • Morning Shift: 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM (maximum of 75 volunteers)

    • Lunch 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

    • Afternoon Shift: 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM (maximum of 75 volunteers)

    To ensure we have a well-balanced volunteer team on the day of the event, we kindly ask that companies limit their group sign-ups to no more than eight volunteers per shift. This helps us accommodate as many participants as possible and minimize empty spots due to no-shows. Thank you for your understanding and support!

    Make sure to arrive 15 minutes before shifts start!  Please read arrival policy FAQ page.

      Ways to Help:

        Can't join us on July 10, 2025? You can still make a meaningful impact!

        Support the cause by making a donation or organizing a food drive at your workplace. Every contribution helps provide essential meals to individuals and families in need across New Jersey.

        ✅ Donate – Every dollar makes a difference  

        ✅ Organize a Food Drive at Your Office – Rally your colleagues to collect non-perishable items. List of CFBNJ most-needed foods.  If you have items at home and you're unsure if they are still acceptable to donate, please visit this site for a shelf-life guide. 
        ✅ Spread the Word – Share our mission with your network and encourage others to get involved.

        Donation boxes are available at the NAIOP New Jersey office.
