Resource verifier — Camden area
Flexible, ~2 hours/month
Check a handful of food and cash assistance listings in Camden each month. Great if you already know the neighborhood.
Give your time
Volunteer With Us
Behind every verified listing is a neighbor who took a few minutes to call, visit, or double-check. That small act of care is how NJ Benefits stays trustworthy.
What volunteers do
You don't need a social work degree or a perfect schedule. Most of our volunteers fit this in around jobs, school, and family — a call here, a visit there, whenever they can.
Call and confirm listings
Pick up the phone, check hours, and make sure a pantry or assistance program is still open. A 15-minute call can save someone a wasted trip.
Visit local resources
Stop by a food bank or community center in your area, introduce yourself, and verify what they offer. We provide a simple checklist.
Help keep directories current
Update listings in our system when something changes — new hours, a moved address, or a program that closed. Remote-friendly and flexible.
Why it matters
When someone is hungry, behind on rent, or trying to figure out where to go next, wrong information isn't just annoying — it's costly. A verified listing means a parent doesn't drag their kids across town for a pantry that closed last month.
Your time keeps real people from hitting dead ends. That's the whole point of NJ Benefits.
