Credit Unions were established to serve their communities beyond the financial products and services they offer. That’s why Fort Billings Federal Credit Union has teamed up with 13 other credit unions across New Jersey to make a lasting impact this season.
This year’s collection period specifically targets the heightened need for food during the summer months, when many children lose access to school-provided meals while on break. The New Jersey Credit Unions Food Cooperative seeks to replenish the shelves of local food pantries and organizations as a result of the increased need.
To donate, visit our Gibbstown or Swedesboro branch to drop off nonperishable food items through August 31st.
Essential food items with the greatest need include:
• Nutritious snacks
• Low-sugar juice boxes
• Mac n Cheese
• Low-sugar cereals & Pop Tarts
• Spreads in plastic jars & Peanut Butter
• Canned protein like tuna & chicken
• Instant potatoes
• Whole grain pasta & rice
• Shelf stable milk & nut milks
• Canned soups & stews
