The city’s casinos have donated more than $170,000 to the Community FoodBank of New Jersey.
The donation was made May 1 as part of the Casinos United Against Hunger campaign.
“Ending hunger will take all of us stepping up to do more for our neighbors,” said Mark Giannantonio, president of the Casino Association of New Jersey. “Atlantic City casinos are coming together to form Casinos United Against Hunger, a new campaign dedicated to strengthening our efforts to combat food insecurity in New Jersey.
“By supporting important organizations like the Community FoodBank of New Jersey, we will help address hunger by providing meals to families throughout the state,” he said.
