Give Back. Be a Jersey Hero.

This holiday season, the New Jersey Hall of Fame is proud to partner with the Community FoodBank of New Jersey for our first-ever Holiday Season Donation Drive! Together, we’re celebrating the spirit of giving and reminding our Jersey neighbors that everyone has the power to make a difference.

More than 1.2 million New Jersey residents, including 330,000 children, face food insecurity. Your generosity can help put food on the table and bring hope to families across our state.

As a special thank-you, bring a donation to the New Jersey Hall of Fame Welcome Desk and receive one free admission for each item donated*! It’s a great opportunity to explore the Hall, celebrate Garden State greatness, and make a meaningful impact in our community.

This partnership holds special meaning for the NJHOF. Community FoodBank of New Jersey founder Kathleen DiChiara was inducted into the New Jersey Hall of Fame as a 2013 Unsung Hero, honoring her extraordinary commitment to fighting hunger and serving others. We’re proud to celebrate her legacy by continuing the mission of giving back.
