We have been battling our way through the winter with our mobile pantry. Looking forward to serving our community minus the ice and snow banks 😀. Open to all!! Just look for our white van in front of @monmouthdaycarecenter #backpackcrewnj #monmouthdaycarecenter #redbanknj #vanlife #forourkids #foodislove #foodinsecurity #bpcfoodpantry ...

2020 has presented us with many obstacles this past year. Our dedicated food pantry volunteers have worked through the pandemic outside since March. Not only did we never miss a week- we doubled the amount of days we are open. Through the rain, summer heat, the dark, and now heading into the coldest months. Fulfill has done everything they can to help keep their agencies going with whatever they need- including us! We now have a permanent tent and heaters to help keep our volunteers and our families that we service comfortable and dry. Our food pantry will continue to be open every Monday evening through the winter months. Thank you Fulfill and to my volunteers that have battled through it all ❤️🍏 #backpackcrewnj #bpcfoodpantry #foodislove #forourkids #foodinsecurity #redbanknj #foodpantry #instagood #service #allarewelcome ...

Dermer Dreams. We are so grateful to have been a part of this incredible event. A huge thank you to Alyse Dermer and her family for orchestrating this. Vans and truck loads of food were delivered to us. Thousands of pounds of food for us to share with our families. It’s amazing what happens when communities work together. Thank you to all who volunteered, donated, delivered and spread the word. And lastly to Tom Morrison, Chuck Dunn, and Thomas Schroll for helping us move and organize all the food today. We are so blessed ❤️🍏 #communitypartners #fairhavennj #redbanknj #forourkids #foodislove #foodinsecurity #backpackcrewnj #bpcfoodpantry ...

A huge thank you to our Oak Hill Academy family! They collected over 2200 pounds of food for the Crop Walk and donated it to the Backpack Crew! This will benefit our food pantry families, Monmouth Day Care families, and the families we make school deliveries to. Thank you to everyone who donated, the Student Council, and the security guards for loading our van up today ❤️🍏#backpackcrewnj #bpcfoodpantry #lincroftnj #redbanknj #middletownnj #foodislove #forourkids #foodinsecurity #fighthunger #communitypartners ...
