For the last couple of weeks, our Monmouth County Facilities have been collecting dried goods for a food drive benefiting the St. Brigid's Food Pantry at St. James Episcopal Church . On Friday, our team members from Marketing, Recreation, and Admissions got together with our Care Partners to deliver the items collected. We are so proud of the impact we were able to make in such a short amount of time, together we were able to donate roughly 500-700lbs of donations.
We look forward to continuing to partner with St. Brigid's in the future to continue to make a difference and . St. Brigid's serves an average of 1,250 hot meals monthly. Keep an eye out for future donations drives!
A special thank you to our Director of Community Marketing, Erika Carbone for putting this together with Debra Bradley from St. Brigid's.
