The Newark food closet has been a staple to this community for 52 years. We serve families all over Wayne County with more than a week’s worth of groceries monthly.  Families have the option to shop for over 70 items from our pantry.  We also offer fresh fruits and vegetables daily. Our pantry is listed as a healthy pantry. Families have access to healthier options that they normally would not be able to afford in the store. So far in 2026 we have helped 571 families; that is 1,280 people and have given away 2201 bags of groceries. By the end of the year that number will have doubled or even tripled. Your continuous support to the food closet has been a huge blessing. They could not help feed families in our community without everyone’s help. A team of dedicated volunteers and your donations help keep the doors open!
