Beyond Borders
A “food bank” is an organization that serves additional organizations. A “food pantry” is an organization that serves food to individuals. We do both.
Over 40 partners work alongside us on the front lines of food insecurity. Similar to us, they have experienced trouble sourcing enough high quality foods to meet the need of their program participants. Beyond Border partners are able to source bulk groceries from our food bank based on their organization's needs. In this way the impact of our hybrid food bank is felt beyond the borders of Franklin Township.
We’re so thankful for the partnership of our current partners. We suggest reaching out to them if you’re in need of additional food support.

Do we have to serve Franklin Township to become a partner?
No, we serve organizations from Montgomery to Elizabeth, all across New Jersey we collaborate with partners like you!
How does it work?
It is required to be a 501c3, fill out an application. If accepted, you will be invited to an orientation about the program.
We serve Beyond Borders partners based on popularity and availability of items in our warehouse.
Do we report back to Franklin Food Bank?
A certain number of points are assigned to families based on the size of the household. Zero point items are available every day.
During your application process you will be assigned an account point total. Approximately 100 points per individual household.
