Redeemer Health Jersey Shore Food Pantry Completes Renovations

Redeemer Health Jersey Shore Food Pantry recently completed renovations that will help improve its efficiency in serving vulnerable individuals and families who are faced with food insecurity. The pantry welcomes neighbors on-site, and, unlike many pantries, even makes deliveries to food-insecure patients cared for by Redeemer Health Home Care Jersey Shore.

The renovations – which include new doors for better access to processing shipments, new floors, a new concrete walkway, and a shipment pad outside the facility – help ensure the pantry is optimally prepared to bring comfort and nourishment to the many people it serves.

The pantry is a well-oiled machine thanks to the dedicated volunteers who receive, unload, and sort food orders, help organize the food within the pantry, and prepare food bags for distribution. 

“Becoming a volunteer is how we can give back to our community, and how we can become an advocate for our neighbors that rely on the pantry’s services,” says Marion Stewart, a Redeemer Health Jersey Shore Food Pantry volunteer. “The renovations at the pantry will make it easier for us to serve our neighbors and help extend our reach to those who need it.” 

Redeemer Health appreciates the kindness and generosity of volunteers and the support of our donors. Both are a true testament to carrying out our Mission to Care, Comfort, and Heal. 

The Redeemer Health Jersey Shore Food Pantry is open Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Those interested in volunteering must be at least 16 years old and can commit a minimum of 30 lifetime hours. Interested in volunteering? For more information, call 215-938-3243.
