Optimum partners with Interfaith Food Pantry Network for critical hunger relief in Morris County

Internet provider launches food drive at select New Jersey retail stores to support residents facing heightened food insecurity

In a period marked by heightened demand on food banks, Optimum, a leading provider of internet and TV services, is partnering with the Interfaith Food Pantry Network (IFPN) to launch a critical food drive aimed at delivering hunger relief to thousands of Morris County residents.

The partnership, part of Optimum’s commitment to the communities it serves, is encouraging local residents to contribute non-perishable food items by placing donation boxes at select Optimum retail stores across the region.

“Optimum is honored to partner with the Interfaith Food Pantry Network in this critical effort to help fight hunger across our local communities in Morris County,” Elton Hart, vice president, general manager of Optimum Tri-State. “With the need for food assistance at an all-time high, it has never been more urgent for us to come together and support our neighbors.”

The food drive is dedicated to supporting families, veterans, and seniors who may be facing food insecurity, ensuring they have access to nourishing meals during the season of giving.

Donation details

Community members wishing to contribute to the food drive can drop off non-perishable items from now through Nov. 20.

Food collection boxes are available at the following Optimum retail store locations in New Jersey:

  • East Hanover: 368 NJ-10
  • Edison: 561 U.S. Route 1 E5
  • Morris Township: 191 East Hanover Avenue, Suite C-3

The initiative highlights Optimum’s ongoing effort to deepen its community presence and connect customers to what matters most, standing with families throughout Morris County.
