TOMS RIVER – Northern Ocean Habitat for Humanity’s ReStore is inviting residents to help fight hunger this season through its Fall Food Drive, which runs now through November 22.
The ReStore, located at 1214 Route 37 East in Toms River, is collecting unexpired, nonperishable food items to benefit local food banks serving Ocean County families in need.
According to organizers, more than 11 percent of Ocean County households have struggled with food insecurity over the past year. Donations collected during the drive will help provide meals and nourishment to families who might otherwise go without.
“Together, we can build stronger, healthier communities — one can at a time,” Habitat staff said on a social media post.
Donations can be dropped off at the ReStore Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
