At First Step Food Pantry in Middletown, NJ, our mission is to combat food insecurity by providing critical food assistance to families in need. We proudly serve over 150 families each month, offering weekly packages that supply enough nutritious food for 6-8 meals for a family of four.

We operate on a first-come, first-served basis, welcoming those who come to our pantry on Fridays.
