The Rockland Community Foundation (RCF) aims to enhance the quality of life for all in Rockland County through increasing charitable giving and connecting donors with community needs they are passionate about. Established by dedicated community leaders, RCF serves as a permanent resource for making Rockland County a better place to live and grow, now and forever. RCF supports a wide range of issue areas including arts, education, community development, conservation, health, and human services with a focus on diversity, equity, and inclusiveness.
The Food Pantry Assistance grant, in partnership between the Rockland Community Foundation and Inserra (Shoprite) Supermarkets, is designed to support food pantries in Rockland County by providing them with Shoprite Gift Cards. This initiative, now in its seventeenth year, matches donated funds dollar-for-dollar, culminating in a donation of $500 in gift cards to up to fourteen selected food pantries. The primary goal is to provide direct assistance to food pantries, enhancing their capability to serve the community, especially during the pivotal month of November.
