In 1992 Hands of Hope, Inc. began to serve the community as a food pantry/soup kitchen and a limited clothes closet, and today the program continues to function from St. James Church, Edison NJ.

Hands of Hope is a non-profit, community-based organization.

We are committed to providing an efficient and effective centralized system for distributing food to alleviate hunger. Our food drive for the needy is focused on sustaining good nutrition, health, and most of all human dignity by providing a means for the individual to meet their full potential and to silence the pain hunger brings.

Our organization also provides simple yet vital needs to help children and families live productive and happy lives year-round!

For Kids
By helping children living in poverty we can enable them to experience the fullness of life God offers. Toys drive, Pumpkin patch, and backpack/school supplies drive are great ways to support a very worthy cause – a smile on the face of needy children.

For Families
Health Fairs, warm coat drives, and regular luncheons help improve health and quality of life.
