Help Feed Families In Somerset County This Thanksgiving

SOMERSET COUNTY, NJ — Somerset County has kicked off its annual adopt-a-family program to help struggling families this Thanksgiving.

"Due to the pandemic and Hurricane Ida, there are more families struggling than ever before," said Shanel Robinson, Somerset County Commissioner Director.

To help Somerset County families in need enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday, the county is asking for a $45 donation, which will provide a family of four with a Thanksgiving dinner. Ultimately, though, ANY amount will be gratefully accepted.

Donations made before Saturday, Nov. 20, 2021 would help the most people.
