The Rotary Club of Hillsborough today announced a grocery drive to help replenish the vital supplies made available to families in need by the Hillsborough Township Food Pantry.
“Unfortunately, the current coronavirus crisis has limited our Town’s ability to purchase the groceries needed to maintain the inventory at the Food Pantry,” commented Tricia Marciano, president of the Rotary Club of Hillsborough. “It is particularly important at this difficult time to ensure that our community members in need have access to nutritious food and cleaning supplies.”
To supplement the Township’s ongoing efforts, the Rotary Club has established five collection points (listed below) where Township residents can drop off the needed items. Due to sanitary and storage restrictions, only those items listed below can be collected.
The Rotary Grocery Drive will take place from Thursday, April 16, through Sunday, April 19. For purposes of social distancing, collection bins will be stationed outside the following Hillsborough locations:
- Spera Electric, 15 Ilene Court, Bldg. 12, Suite 2;
- Pinnacle Health and Fitness, 30 Brower Lane;
