Our Pantry and Mission

At Somerset County Mobile Food Bank, our mission is to facilitate access to vital food resources for the residents of Somerset County.

We achieve this through a multifaceted approach that combines centralized and mobile food distribution methods. Our primary goal is to establish a collaborative network of food distributions that enhances the capacity of available food resources. Concurrently, we strive to engage with local food producers, incorporating their donated or saleable food items into our distribution system through partnerships with program stakeholders.

Distributions

While we typically don’t make home deliveries, we offer a program for churches and organizations that would like to deliver boxes of food to disabled or elderly individuals in their area. The program serves those who have great difficulty picking up their own food.

Able-bodied cardholders and households with able-bodied family members must pick up their food at one of our nine distribution sites. Groups interested in becoming volunteers for the Homebound Program should contact us for more information. Each group needs a minimum of two responsible individuals of record. Additional volunteers are strongly recommended to fill in or help deliver the boxes.
