Lifting up Mercer County
Through vital support in food security, strong families, and expanded learning opportunities, we’re helping the people of Mercer County move toward resilience and success.
Nourish. Empower. Thrive.
Where there is a need, Mercer Street Friends will find a way.
Mercer Street Friends is a nonprofit organization that provides food for those who are food insecure, support for families, and educational opportunities that lead to better tomorrows. We work in collaboration with social and human service organizations, the Trenton School District and medical health resources to ensure that families of all ages and stages can access the services they need to live a more fulfilling life.
Our Mission
Nourishing minds and bodies;
Empowering families and communities.
