Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, The Somerset County Food Bank Network is working hard to supplement local food-unstable families at an unexpectedly high rate. As a result, the county's food bank resources are depleting at twice the normal rate; therefore, The Food Bank Network is in dire need of donations to serve our neighbors.

The Warren Twp Democratic Committee is sponsoring a food drive to provide non-perishable food donations and staples. The goal is to collect and deliver to the SC Food Bank Network often to help ease the burden.

Drop off-locations are set -up across Warren's businesses and neighborhoods. Look for the gray bins in front or inside these establishments to drop off donations: Ciro's, Pita Grill and Creperie, East Coast Pizza, and The Vested Interest. Residence drop-offs include 1 Sandalwood Drive, 3 Edmund Drive, 22 Flintlock Drive, and 40 Gates Ave. Mt. Horeb United Methodist Church at 42 Liberty Corner Road is also accepting donations.
