Rise Against Hunger
Rise Against Hunger is a growing coalition of hunger champions who are committed to ending hunger for everyone, everywhere.
NJWC partnered with the Northboro Lions Club to hold a Rise Against Hunger meal packaging event on May 11, 2019 where 50 volunteers packaged 10,000 meals in less than two hours!
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
