The Interfaith Food Pantry Network’s 2024 Spring Gala, Together Towards Tomorrow, promises to be a special celebration of IFPN and its supporters who ensure we can provide emergency and supplemental nutritious food to approximately 10,000 Morris County neighbors each month who are facing hunger and food insecurity. In 2023, we distributed a record 2 million pounds of food including fresh produce, eggs, dairy, frozen meats and shelf stable foods – the equivalent of 1.8 million meals – through visits to one of our two pantries, home deliveries and via our partner network.

We look forward to honoring:

Wegmans with the Outstanding Partnership Award

Hank & Jacke Schram with the Neighbors Helping Neighbors Award

Gary’s Wine & Marketplace with the Community Impact Award

The Gala will also reflect on an extraordinary year when we accommodated a 30% increase in new clients as we opened the new Margaret A. Darrin Healthy Choices Marketplace and welcomed our clients to in-person shopping for the first time since March 2020.

Congratulations to the winners!
