"We are grateful for corporate leaders like NJM and their generous support of our efforts to combat hunger in our communities."
NJM directs charitable contributions throughout the year toward organizations that support arts and culture, health, education, community assistance, safety, and financial literacy. However, the Company’s philanthropic efforts extend beyond charitable donations.
Community service programs offer employees opportunities to attend outreach events and volunteer their time and talents, including membership on multiple non-profit committees and boards.
