Hunger Organization Provides School Shopping Relief, Too

Ocean County Hunger Relief spends much of its time trying to assist families in keeping food on the table during tough times.

But it turns out the organization offers a little relief from high clothing prices as well, according to an article on APP.com.

Its warehouse and thrift store, which help support its hunger relief mission, is stocked with clothing in the latest designs and fashion trends, but at prices far more affordable for those on a tight budget.

Carol Latif, executive director of Ocean County Hunger Relief, said she remembers what it was like as a single mother, trying to buy clothing for her kids during the back-to-school rush every year.

“I always tried to steer the kids away from anything that was going to cost anything,” Latif told APP.com. “So I know what it’s like to try to get brand new and designer and great pieces.”
