Special COVID-19 Notice

Food Pantries Are Open - Limited Operations

Our food pantries are OPEN as usual. Main Pantry: Tue and Thur; Colonial Manor: Sat only. Times for both: 9:30 - 11:00 AM. 

However, we are being very cautious about not spreading the virus. Clients will remain outside and will be served one at a time. We are NOT conducting our regular interviews. Clients will be given a standard assortment of grocery items according to the size of the family, and must wait outside the building. We are limiting the number of volunteers each day, but our revised process moves quickly. 

Please HELP us. Donations are especially needed at this time when stores are limiting quantity buying. Non-perishable food (and checks) will be accepted, but must be handed off at the door. See below for items we need.


Be patient. Trust that God will see us all through these difficult times. Continue to help each other. Be wise and follow the guidelines for safe living.

Donations Encouraged

Who We Are, What We Do

 

Organized among various churches in Woodbury, New Jersey, the Greater Woodbury Cooperative Ministries, Inc. (GWCM ) was founded to enable local social ministries beyond the resources of any one of our faith communities.

We are an all-volunteer, IRS 501(c)(3) recognized not-for-profit charity, serving the City of Woodbury and the immediate surrounding NJ communities.

GWCM's food pantries are intended as emergency relief services, providing, in addition to food, guidance to clients in accessing government and other community assistance.

Besides our ongoing food pantries, the GWCM has been involved in a number of other community projects over the years, including ecumenical worship services, Vacation Bible School, a high school Peace Essay Scholarship, a clothing closet, our Children's Summer Lunch Box program, and a Handy Helpers program to assist seniors and the disabled with household chores.
