Help Clarks Landing Yacht Sales "Fill a Boat with Food" to Carry Our Jersey Shore Community Through Stormy Times

Point Pleasant, NJ (May 12, 2020) – Since the pandemic began, Fulfill, our local food bank in Monmouth and Ocean Counties, has seen a 40% increase in the demand for food at the Jersey Shore. The Clarks Landing Yacht Sales Group wishes to help their neighbors by running a different kind of food drive and asking local residents, businesses, and community groups for help.

Help Clarks "Fill a Boat with Food" to see our Jersey shore neighbors through these challenges times. They're collecting food daily from 10 am – 4 pm in two convenient locations with drop off bins available to stay socially-distant: Clarks Landing Yacht Sales Yacht Club and Marina at 847 Arnold Avenue in Point Pleasant, NJ, and The Mill Lakeside Manor at 1309 Ocean Road in Spring Lake Heights, NJ. This food collection campaign runs through May 31, 2020, and all donations go directly to support Ocean and Monmouth County residents through Fulfill. Every donation is a lifesaver for neighbors in need.

All food donation details and the list of most needed items can be found on their charity page at https://www.clarkslanding.com/charity/ and their Facebook event page @clarkslandingyachtclub. Direct donations are also being accepted, which go straight to Fulfill. $1 covers 3 meals! Checks are acceptable, payable to Fulfill. Online donations can be made at Fulfillnj.org/donate/

We know our friends and neighbors are struggling and we want to do all we can to help them get through tough times.
