Annual Holiday Meal Donation Drive for veterans under way

Share post:

Mercer County Veteran Services is currently conducting its annual donation drive to help veterans and their families enjoy the comforts of a hot meal on each holiday.

Rather than collecting donations of food, Mercer County’s Division of Veteran Services accepts monetary donations that go toward the purchase of ShopRite gift cards veterans can use to purchase holiday meals. Veterans will receive those gift cards in time for holiday meal preparations. Mercer County Veteran Services uses every dollar collected during the drive to purchase and distribute the ShopRite gift cards for food products.

Those who wish to donate can make a check payable to Mercer County Trust Fund. Donations can be mailed to the Mercer County Division of Veteran Services, 2280 Hamilton Avenue, Hamilton, NJ 08619.

For additional information on making a donation, call (609) 989-6120.
