Holiday Giving Programs
When searching the NJ 2-1-1 Resource Database use the following search terms:
Search terms provided below must be entered into the search bar on the home page of our website exactly as
shown.
For holiday gift giving programs, meals and holiday use: holiday toys; holiday gifts
For meals for the holidays use: Thanksgiving meals; Christmas meals, Christmas baskets; Thanksgiving baskets
To find out where to donate meals or toys: holiday donations
In addition to what is listed in our database, we have received information on the following resources. This
list has been compiled and revised as needed over the years. All locations followed by an asterisk (*) have been
verified this year. Those that could not be reached by phone have a notation reflecting that we are awaiting
confirmation.
Many holiday gift programs receive referrals from social service agencies in their community. If none of the resources
listed in our database or listed below are appropriate, people-in-need may find help through social service agencies
that they currently work with (Board of Social Services in their county- see a county listing at the end of this program
listing; local food banks; church, etc.) For gift giving programs they may also find it beneficial to reach out to local
ambulance and fire squads which traditionally have sponsored these types of programs. The Salvation Army is
known for the assistance it provides at Christmas. Call 908.851.9300 to be directed to your local office to learn what
is available in your area.
If you know of other appropriate giving programs that are not in the database and are not listed below, please send
the information to Sue Ross at sross@nj211.org so that this sheet can be updated.
