Mission Statement

The mission of the Princeton Pantry is to provide sufficient quantities of quality nutritionally balanced food to serve those in need. This will be accomplished by gathering and sharing information, ideas, and resources; by working jointly on issues of importance to food shelves. The Princeton Pantry will also take an active role in community education around hunger and poverty issues to include food and nutrition programs.

Money Gives More to the Pantry

Cash or check donations allow the pantry to purchase food items they are unable to accept from food donations, such as produce, meat, and dairy. Cash donations are also stretched, meaning every dollar donated will result in four pounds of food for the pantry. Lastly, cash doesn’t spoil or expire, so it can be used throughout the year.
