In October, the Greater Princeton Branch of AYLUS (GPA) volunteers continued to help our local community at Community Food Bank of New Jersey (31 Evans Terminal Road #1, Hillside, NJ 07205), Mercer Street Friends Food Bank (824 Silvia Street, Ewing, NJ 08628), and Rise Food Pantry & Thrift Store (133 Broad Street, Hightstown, NJ 08520).
GPA members donated non-perishable foods, helped hand out and carry out food boxes, helped set up, guide clients through and clean up the food distribution. Shopping and helping others go hand in hand at Rise! Stop in for a few hours or spend the day-lots of volunteer opportunities to fit their skills and schedule. Lots of tasks to help keep the shop going.
GPA Volunteers (NJ Community Food Bank & Rise Food Pantry & Thrift Store): Kevin LI (10/21, Maplewood “Reveal for Heal” Food Distribution, AM & PM Shifts, in total 8 hrs), Benjamin Li (10/21, Maplewood “Reveal for Heal” Food Distribution, AM & PM Shifts, in total 8 hrs), Angela Chen (10/22, 3.5 hrs), Chloe Zhao (10/25, 2.5 hrs), James Yang (10/28, 2 hrs)
