#unsustainable! Try it, leave a comment about what you couldn't do very well on an #emptystomach. What in your life or work would suffer over time? Learn about #foodinsecurity in your community and #getinvolved. You just might be helping your neighbor #nextdoor.

Has your week been busy? No worries, there's still 24 more hours to snag an extra pack of toilet paper from the store or that extra toothbrush in the closet you got at your last dentist visit.
Bring food, toiletries, hygiene & period products, diapers, laundry supplies, or money to the Stop & Shop nearest you between 10am-2pm tomorrow and say Hi! to the REPLENISH crew and volunteers.
Do you remember the last time that your paycheck just covered the rent?
What suffered until the next paycheck?
The majority of us are far from this reality but for those still struggling to recover from a loss or to just keep up with the rising #costofliving here, #propernutrition is an easy thing to sacrifice. Help us make this reality history. Get informed and #getinvolved with the social issues that impact your community's #foodsecurity.
#HungerActionMonth
It's possibly the best and easiest thing you'll do all month! Sign up, show up, have fun with us, and feel totally good!

Going to college will improve your life outcomes, that's what they say. This award-winning #documentary Hungry to Learn highlights daily food as a sacrifice that a growing number of students are willing to pay to stay in school.
Get to know about this hidden problem and how Rutgers Student Food Pantry and Middlesex College food pantry to help keep our future leaders learning.

Why are 1 in 8 or our neighbors going hungry? #middlesexcountynj offers so many opportunities for work, study, and play but the #costofliving is a real struggle for some of YOUR neighbors.
Even for working households, responsibly paying rent leaves little or nothing left over for other basic costs including utilities, transportation, insurance, communications, clothing, and nutrition.
See how health and food insecurity work link up at 6pm!

2021 Hunger Heroes
REPLENISH is thankful to all or our partners, volunteers and supporters. At this time we would like to provide special recognition and thanks to our 2021 Hunger Heroes for the work they’ve done to combat food insecurity in partnership with REPLENISH and Feeding Middlesex County. This year’s awardees are detailed below and you can watch this video to hear directly from the honorees themselves about the work they do and why it is important to them.
2021 Hunger Hero Award Recipients
The Tom Ellison Food Pantry Volunteer Hunger Hero Award of 2021
Nominations were received from our partner food pantries and the awardee was selected by the family of Tom Ellison, our warehouse manager who passed away in 2020. Tom’s dedication to REPLENISH went far above and beyond his job here, Tom made contributions and investments in the program that have left a long-lasting legacy. Betty Crews of Peter’s Pantry in Perth Amboy is this year’s recipient. Betty exemplifies Tom’s legacy of putting others before herself and always looking for ways to improve pantry operations and better serve residents.
Corporate Hunger Hero
Awarded to Liberty Coca Cola. Brian Fitzpatrick and Liberty Coca Cola have been a partner of REPLENISH for the last 13 years and have contributed over 450,000 pounds of product. Additionally, Liberty Coca Cola has provided volunteers at our facility and at food drive events as part of their commitment to giving back to the community.
Community Hunger Hero
Awarded to Isabelle Goldman. Isabelle has volunteered with REPLENISH at our facility for a couple of years. During the pandemic when we were unable to continue utilizing volunteers on site Isabelle turned her artistic talents into a fundraiser to benefit Feeding Middlesex County. She made beautiful paintings on canvases and sold them to friends and families during the holidays. All proceeds were donated to Feeding Middlesex County. (Isabelle is continuing this tradition again this year; i
