Your Grandmothers Cupboard


Star Dog is proud to have partnered to help local organization


Your Grandmother’s Cupboard is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization founded with the mission to provide clothing and other “necessities of life” to the homeless, working poor, seniors and other invisible people in our midst.
One of the most fabulous thing about this organization is that they recognize that, due to lack of transportation or disabilities, a lot of their recipients in need are unable to visit food and clothing banks.  So their mission revolves around volunteers making "deliveries."  With their traveling van, they reach many of Northeast Jersey's homeless.
They provide items not always available to them at clothing banks, soup kitchens or food pantries, such as diapers, razors, toothpaste, shampoo, etc. Their goal is to provide items people need to maintain good health and hygiene but often cannot afford.
 
The Northeast New Jersey Branch of Your Grandmother’s Cupboard serves over 600 people in need in Bergen, Essex, Hudson and Passaic Counties every month throughout the year.
  
Your Grandmother’s Cupboard Northeast New Jersey Branch is located at St. Timothy Lutheran Church, 395 Valley Road, Wayne, New Jersey.  For more information on how you can help or make a contribution, please contact Kathy Jones-Smith at 973-305-4903
