Spread some holiday cheer this year by helping to fulfill the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen (TASK) Holiday Wish List. Each year, TASK works to ensure that everyone in the community has a festive and meaningful holiday season. By donating warm winter weather gear, toys, and food, you can help make the holidays even more special for neighbors in need.

This year, the Holiday Wish List includes gloves, scarves, and socks; skull caps (blue grey and black); backpacks and drawstring bags; hoodies M-XXL, no logos, dark, neutral colors; hygiene bags for adults and children with full-size products (see website); children’s toys and games for ages infant to 10; gifts for pre-teens and teenagers ages 11-17; and frozen turkeys, boxed stuffing, juice, cranberry sauce, and boxed macaroni and cheese.

From shelf-stable food to hygiene products, TASK is always in need of supplies to help patrons.
