Volunteers
GCS also relies upon a pool of many dedicated volunteers who plan, shop for and prepare hundreds of meals a week, welcome our guests, coordinate volunteer schedules and make it possible for GCS
to serve hundreds of people every week.
GCS Board of Directors
GCS’ board is comprised of dedicated volunteers who are currently creating an infrastructure to expand and deepen the services GCS is able to provide to better meet the tremendous need in Jersey City. The Board is cultivating new members with ties to Jersey City’s business community, key city stake holders, and local leaders who will help us spread the word about GCS. They are also reaching out to leaders of like-minded organizations who serve populations
similar to those served by GCS.
