Video Overview

 

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) registered not-for-profit charity, serving the City of Woodbury and the immediately surrounding NJ communities. This institution is an equal opportunity provider.

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

Besides our ongoing food pantries and clothing center, 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, our Children's Summer Lunch Box program, and a Handy Helpers program to assist seniors and the disabled with household chores.
