SomCo, Somerset Patriots Launch County Wide Food Drive

The number of Somerset County families – including in Franklin Township – seeking assistance from local food pantries and banks is up between 50 percent and 100 percent since last year, prompting Somerset County and the Somerset Patriots, the New York Yankees Double-A affiliate, to announce a joint food drive to encourage donations of dollars, food, and personal care products.

The effort was recently kicked-off at TD Bank Ballpark in Bridgewater as part of a holiday toy and food event organized by the team.
