Food Depot
CUMAC serves as the largest food warehouse facility for Passaic County agencies, housing food and non-food items for nearly 60 area nonprofits. We serve as the drop off point and distribution center for local food pantries that cannot store or manage large shipments of food from corporate or government agencies.
In addition, our refrigerated truck and cargo van do pick-ups and deliveries of perishable food for the 40 agencies of the Emergency Food Coalition. The Depot also coordinates food collection and dissemination for established food drives such as the Postal Worker's Drive and North Jersey Media Group's Action Against Hunger. When there is a large-scale disaster in our area, like Super Storm Sandy in October 2012, the Depot is able to transport and warehouse corporate donations and other significant collections of supplies for the Community Closet to distribute to affected areas.
The Depot is made possible with funds provided by the Passaic County Board of Freeholders through the County Department of Human Services, under grants from the State of New Jersey Department of Human Services.
