Thank you to the great team of ladies from Bristol-Myers Squibb that offered helping hands at Bentley!  They did such a great job sorting fresh food provisions from our generous providers.

Our recent food drive for non-perishable provisions was another success at the Shop Rite in Hillsborough!  Many thanks to the community of generous shoppers, Shop Rite and the group of volunteers that helped at our food drive event.  We collected over 1,700 lbs and this will help replenish our shelves and inventory of crucial household pantry staples.

We thank you for the great article you placed in the Courier News, Home News Tribune and on mycentraljersey.com along with photos of Bentley Community Services!

We cannot thank Bloomberg and the employee volunteers enough for their ongoing help and support.  A team comes to Bentley every Tuesday to help with many assorted tasks all over our facility. Large amounts of fresh, bulk fruits and vegetables are sorted, along with such a diverse amount of other fresh and frozen foods, dry goods, quality bakery, basic needs products and flowers and plants.

Here are some photos of the dedicated and hard working volunteers from Bloomberg:
