RIDGEWOOD, NJ A $1 million state grant will help the HealthBarn Foundation support restaurants in Ridgewood s Central Business District, and deliver 100,000 meals to county residents struggling with food insecurity.
The grant was awarded through the New Jersey Economic Development Authority s Sustain and Serve program, which delivered $14 million in grant funding to 27 recipients across the state.
That money was distributed to nonprofits like HealthBarn, which utilize local restaurants to distribute meals to community members facing food insecurity. That s evermore important since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, when county residents relied on donated meals at numbers hardly seen before.
