Donate to the Samaritan Center this Holiday Season

The Samaritan Center is distributing their Thanksgiving baskets on Saturday.

Looking to give back this holiday season? The Samaritan Center in Manalapan is in need of donations. The Samaritan Center is a food pantry that serves the Englishtown, Marlboro, Manalapan, and Millstone communities, and has for decades.

The center already has Thanksgiving baskets being put together and donated by volunteers who have signed up to do so. These baskets will be distributed to the Samaritan Center clients on Saturday. 

Therefore, the center is no longer in need of Thanksgiving food stuffs, but rather just regular staples that everyone shops for including canned vegetables, canned fruits, soups, and cereals.
