Jon Bon Jovi Bringing The Soul Kitchen To Ocean County

The Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation along with The FoodBank of Monmouth and Ocean Counties and Peoples Pantry, are continuing to help families of New Jersey combat the issues of food insecurity.

The B.E.A.T. Center (Bringing Everyone All Together) is located on Hooper Avenue in Toms River, and will serve as a FoodBank satellite location, a permanent home of the Peoples Pantry and a second location for the JBJ Soul Kitchen.

Families can access benefits such as affordable health care, food stamps (SNAP), free tax preparation, life skills and job search support. The B.E.A.T. Center will also include a culinary training program provided by the FoodBank. Their commercial kitchen will prepare meals for low income children and homebound seniors, while providing job training skills and real time restaurant experience to students in the culinary arts.

You can donate to help The B.E.A.T. Center here. You can also start your own fundraiser, and have the chance for a meet-and-greet with Jon Bon Jovi.
