Donate Today
Organizations like Community Outreach Group, Inc. rely heavily on donations to keep things running smoothly. The food pantry could not fight food insecurity in the community and provide the necessary resources and support without your kind donations. Both monetary contributions and non-perishable food donations are much appreciated and can have a big impact. The food cupboard is able to help individuals and families in need by providing wholesome food and other necessities, thanks to these donations.
Donations by cash or check are gratefully accepted. Make checks payable to The Community Outreach Group, Inc. (PO Box 4041 Middletown, NJ 07748) Write on the memo line: Pantry and/or Cupboard. We also accept donations via paypal.
