Virtual Food Drive for Fulfill

Virtual Food Drive for Fulfill

In April the Greater Long Branch Chamber of Commerce along with the City of Long Branch hosted a Virtual Food Drive for Fulfill. Fulfill is the food bank for Monmouth and Ocean County.

Our goal was to raise $2,500.00. In the month of April we were able to raise $2,597.00. The Chamber and City wants to thank everyone who donated to the virtual food drive. In this time of the pandemic, we were able to supply the food bank with funds so they can supply food to all the local food pantries in Long Branch and the surrounding areas.
