ONE MISSION. ONE MILLION. TOGETHER, NEW JERSEY DID SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY.
Thanks to incredible community support, our 100 Yard Food Drive Challenge on October 26, 2025, was a huge success. Students, families, teams, and partners united to help fill the entire Rumson Fair Haven Football Field with donated food.
Not only did New Jersey fill the entire field, we exceeded our initial goal of raising over ONE MILLION pounds of food for people who are food insecure.
In just one afternoon, tens of thousands of bags were collected and distributed, bringing hope to families across New Jersey and inspiring lasting lessons in compassion and community action.
We’re updating our site with photos and videos from the 100 Yard Food Drive Challenge so you can relive the day and share.
