Right now, we are facing a critical moment. Nearly 40,000 Mercer County residents could lose their SNAP benefits on November 1 if the federal government shutdown continues.

The impact on children, seniors, veterans, people with disabilities, and families will be devastating, and we’re preparing to ensure our neighbors do not go hungry. With over 100 pantry partners across Trenton and Mercer County, we are ready to act – but we can’t do it without you.

Please consider donating today as it will go directly toward fighting hunger in our community when it’s needed most: https://mercerstreetfriends.org/?form=FUNDKQZXVXP
