The mission of the Washington Community Food Pantry is to assist and provide supplement food to the needy in the Washington, New Jersey area, who have been impacted by financial problems as a result of unemployment (lay-offs and/or downsizing), divorce, disability, health, domestic violence, homelessness, disaster, aging, and rising cost of living.
We gather, store and distribute goods to those who find themselves in time of special need and crisis. Our mission is based on a compassionate hand out and hand up as we respect the dignity of each person we serve.
