Does anyone know a local charity/organization that I could dontate all of my daughter's babyfood? We have so much left over and it would be a shame to just throw it away--We live in Bergen County...so anything in the area would be helpful!

Thanks!

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Hey everyone....thank you so much for all the wonderful advice. I have decided to donate the food to the Hudson Cradle house. Its a Group Home in Jersey City providing full, nurturing care to homeless infants with special needs. One of the mom's told me about it and when I looked up the website I called them right away..I will be dropping off the food this week!

K., I think you can bring it to the police department. I live in Westwood, and the police department has a box setup in their lobby. Alternatively, you can bring it to any local church and they would donate as well.

Hi K.,
I'm in the same boat! BUT, I received a brown paper bag with my newspaper today. The Action Against Hunger Foundation is accepting donations at most supermarkets on Oct. 14th from noon to 4p.m. Baby food is one of the items listed. Check with your local supermarket.
Regards,
J.
