South Brunswick Residents Volunteer at Soup Kitchen

Residents Azra Baig and Nancy Asher-Shultz were just two of the volunteers from South Brunswick.

SOUTH BRUNSWICK, NJ - On the Friday before Christmas, Muslim and Jewish volunteers from South Brunswick Township and across Central New Jersey met at the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen to make meals for the homeless. South Brunswick Board of Education member Azra Baig and resident Nancy Asher-Shultz were just two of the volunteers from South Brunswick represented.

The volunteers prepared and served 500 meals total. They were joined by Congresswoman Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-Ewing). Rep. Coleman represents South Brunswick as part of New Jersey's twelfth Congressional district.

The event was sponsored by the Mercer County chapter of Muslims Against Hunger. They have been serving at the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen for the past six years, always around the holidays.
