Food
- We are distributing sandwiches daily.
- If you would like to donate sandwiches, please make the sandwiches "in bulk" per the guidelines on our website: https://www.sjeliz.org/donate-food.html.
PLEASE individually wrap each sandwich and label each loaf of sandwiches so that we know whether or not they need to be refrigerated. If you would like to contribute a bagged lunch, please put the non-perishables (drink, fruit cup, snack) in a bag and we can add the sandwiches as needed.
PLEASE be sure to wear gloves and follow sanitary guidelines when making sandwiches.
We are also asking for small bags of fruit that do not need to be refrigerated - apples, oranges, etc. - Please bring sandwiches or bags of fruit to 118 Division St., Elizabeth, NJ between 9am and 12pm.
