Do Good Local exists to aid us to obey the Lord's command to love our neighbor as ourselves.
"Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?" And he said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
Matthew 22:36-39

family promise
We are there when a family’s homelessness is imminent, and we work to avoid the trauma of a family losing their housing. Our Affiliates do this through:
- Case management and community support
- Rental assistance, security deposits
- Utility support
- Landlord mediation
- Housing location
- Transportation – gas cards, bus passes, and car donations
Keeping families out of shelter is good public policy and good fiscal policy. When families have lost housing and reach out to Family Promise, we provide alternatives to shelter, including:
- Temporary hotel/motel stays
- Payments for rent in arrears, security deposits
- Landlord mediation and housing location
- Creative solutions leveraging a family’s strengths

OCean county community food bank
The FoodBank of Monmouth & Ocean Counties is now Fulfill. We’ve changed our name, because we’re doing more than ever to change lives in our communities for the better.
Our new name reflects the fact that today we focus on more than food distribution. It reflects our commitment to fulfill more of the needs of our neighbors and win the battle against hunger. It reflects our comprehensive approach that goes beyond providing food and helps those in need get to a place where they can get back on their feet for good.
Ending hunger in our communities is a complex challenge, so Fulfill provides a full suite of programs to provide the resources people need to become self-sufficient.
