Our Vision..

Our original vision was to distribute food to the most in need including homeless and undocumented people.  We found that those communities were already served by churches and other programs in Princeton.  So we changed our target to low income and seniors for the project.  Since November, we’ve successfully been serving the community at Redding Circle. In the last few weeks we’ve expanded our food distribution to include children in after school programs (Pannell Center and the  YMCA).  We’ve monitored our progress by keeping track of the number of families served each week 

The simplicity of this program should make it attractive to implement on a broader basis to reach more communities.There are four elements essential to start the program 

Food  – safely prepared and packaged from an approved kitchen

Storage – temperature controlled  and locked  fridge

Location –  suitable to house a refrigerator or coolers  and a friendly place for people to pick up the food.

Dedicated volunteers – to receive and oversee the food distribution

The main obstacle we face to expand and improve our project is restricted resources and funds. When the request came from the seniors for fruit and crackers we used our own money to purchase them. Since we are not a registered non-profit organization, we have limited ways of receiving donations of additional food and/or funds to supplement the food trays  We’re looking for other means to fund the project to meet expenses to further the project.
