🏳️‍🌈 Happy Pride Month from Fisherman's Mark! 🏳️‍🌈

At Fisherman's Mark, we believe every person deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and compassion.

This Pride Month, we celebrate the LGBTQ+ members of our community, including our neighbors, volunteers, staff, board members, program participants, and supporters who help make our organization stronger every day.

We are proud to be a place where all are welcome, where people are valued for who they are, and where everyone deserves the opportunity to feel seen, supported, and connected.

Love is love. Community is for everyone. And at Fisherman's Mark, neighbors help neighbors.

Happy Pride Month! 💙

🎉 Happy Birthday, Ricardo! 🎉

Today we're celebrating Ricardo Zapata, Fisherman's Mark's Director of Operations, and the many ways he helps strengthen our organization and community.

Ricardo oversees operations, manages our food support program, and helps connect neighbors with the resources and support they need. But anyone who knows Ricardo knows his impact goes far beyond his job description.

Whether he's welcoming a new volunteer, supporting a program participant, coaching youth soccer, helping at a community event, or getting down on the floor to blow bubbles with children, Ricardo brings kindness, humor, compassion, and a deep commitment to helping others.

As Ricardo often reminds us:

"Over time, after talking with so many clients from all walks of life, you begin to realize that there is very little that separates us from them."

That perspective—and the empathy that comes with it—helps make Fisherman's Mark a place where neighbors truly help neighbors.

Please join us in wishing Ricardo a very happy birthday and a wonderful year ahead!

💙 Young people, big impact. 💙

Recently, Girls on the Run NJ East South Hunterdon made Fisherman's Mark the focus of its community impact project!

When asked why they chose Fisherman's Mark, their answer melted our hearts:

"Because you guys are all so nice and you all help people, and we wanted to be able to help people in need, too!"

Together, these elementary and middle school students collected and donated three boxes of canned goods and shelf-stable food to support our neighbors.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and commitment to helping others. We're inspired by your compassion and community spirit!

💙 Celebrating the Volunteers Who Make Fisherman's Mark Possible 💙

Last month, we gathered at Unionville Vineyards to celebrate the incredible volunteers who help make our work possible every day.

Together, Fisherman's Mark's 125 volunteers contributed more than 6,500 hours of service this year—representing an estimated $226,000 in value to our organization.

From stocking shelves at the Free MARKet and delivering groceries to supporting events, answering phones, writing thank-you cards, serving on committees, and helping neighbors in countless other ways, our volunteers are at the heart of everything we do.

A special congratulations to Cathy and Tim Sandford, recipients of the Linda Meacham Excellence in Volunteerism Award. Through their many years of service—and their role in helping build community partnerships that continue to benefit local families—they exemplify the spirit of volunteerism that strengthens our community.

We were also pleased to recognize many other outstanding volunteers and celebrate David's retirement after years of dedicated service.

Thank you to every volunteer who helps Fisherman's Mark remain a place where neighbors help neighbors. We couldn't do it without you. 💙

Special thanks to Unionville Vineyards for hosting our celebration and Nomad Pizza for providing dinner.

Most of us don't remember what was in our lunchbox, what backpack we carried, or exactly what we wore to school.

But we remember the people who showed up when we needed them.

Through programs like FLY lunches, camp scholarships, tuition assistance, and our annual backpack drive, Fisherman's Mark helps local children and families feel supported, valued, and cared for.

💙 Thanks to the generosity of our community, we've already raised $129,000 toward our $150,000 Spring Appeal goal.

As we enter the final stretch, we're asking for your help to finish strong.

Because years from now, the children we serve may not remember every detail.

But they will remember how it felt when their community showed up for them.

🐾 What do 172 local cats and 150 local dogs have in common?

They all benefit from Fisherman’s Mark’s Pet Food Pantry.

This year also marks the 10th anniversary of our partnership with Lambertville Animal Welfare (LAW) — a partnership that helps ensure that families don't have to choose between feeding themselves and feeding a beloved pet.

For many of our program participants, pets provide companionship, comfort, and unconditional love. Thanks to LAW's generosity and partnership over the past decade, we've been able to extend support to the furry family members who mean so much to the people we serve.

Thank you, Lambertville Animal Welfare, for 10 years of helping us care for both people and pets in our community. ❤️🐶🐱

🌱🥕 The 2026 Farm Stand season is officially underway at the Free MARKet!

We were thrilled to welcome participants back for the first Farm Stand of the season, filled with beautiful fresh produce from our incredible farm and food rescue partners. From colorful vegetables to seasonal favorites, the Farm Stand helps connect our community with healthy, nutritious food throughout the growing season.

Thank you to our amazing partners who help make this program possible each year! ❤️

In addition to fresh produce, participants also had access to valuable community resources during the event:

Norwescap New Jersey was onsite sharing information about workers’ rights, and the Hunterdon County, NJ - Health Department Public Health Nursing provided 42 blood pressure screenings for participants

It was a wonderful day of food, health, education, and community connection — and we’re excited for another great Farm Stand season ahead! 🌞🥬🍅
