Our current enrollment is approximately 300 food-insecure individuals and families. Although some do not participate every month, our volunteers can always be found preparing food packages for many families in a single day. The churches of the Manasquan Ministerium are located in Manasquan, Spring Lake, Spring Lake Heights, Brielle, and Sea Girt; however, the pantry receives clients from many other Jersey Shore towns. As of 2020, the average percentage of people living in poverty for the five towns already noted was 4.06%. The majority of our clients reside in Monmouth County. Below is a list of the Pantry’s current needs:

• Canned Fruit
• Canned Black Beans
• Tomato Products
• Pasta Sauce
• Flour
• Sugar
• Bottled Juice
• Laundry Detergent
• Dish Soap
• Paper Products
• Please no soup or pasta – our shelves are full

Donations may be brought to the pantry during our operating hours or left in the black bin located outside the church entrance.  Thank you.
