Mission Statement
Since 1989, Elijah’s Promise has harnessed the power of food to break the cycle of poverty, alleviate hunger and change lives for the most vulnerable members of our Central New Jersey community. We operate a community soup kitchen, culinary arts school, catering business and café, and connect low-income individuals and families with social and health services. With the support of volunteers, donors and community partners, we serve more than 200,000 meals per year and train previously unskilled workers for careers in the food services industry.
About This Cause
Through our work, Elijah’s Promise strives to break the cycle of poverty in our community. We envision a community where no one goes hungry for lack of food or funds; where a good meal is a nutritious meal; where our community learns to steward natural and financial resources wisely; and where we make opportunity available to those who seek it. Our values shape who we are and what we do. If you asked what compels and guides us in our work, the following things would be at the core of our identity and mission: * Ending hunger * Breaking the cycle of poverty * Promoting healthy, sustainable food * Empowering individuals through job training and opportunity * Creating businesses that create social good * Providing dignity and honor to those we serve * Remembering the contributions of those who serve * Using our natural and financial resources wisely
