Spreading Hope This Holiday Season

The holidays are a time for gratitude, generosity, and community. At Jade International, giving back has always been part of our company culture. We believe no one should have to worry about where their next meal is coming from — especially during the holiday season.

That’s why we’re proud to once again come together for a cause close to our hearts: fighting hunger in our local communities through our annual food drive.

As the holiday’s are quickly approaching, Jade and Friends are happy to announce the 5th Annual Food Drive. Each year we collect non-perishable food donations from now until the the week of Thanksgiving. The week of December 2nd, we will take our donation to WMMR’s Preston and Steve’s Camp Out for Hunger site. All donations go to Philabundance, who works with over 500 agencies in our area to distribute food to those in need.

A list of the most needed non-perishable foods are listed below:

• Canned Shelf-Stable Tuna
• Macaroni and Cheese
• Canned Pasta
• Canned Beef Stew
• Canned Chili
• Creamy Peanut Butter
• Jelly
• Canned Green Beans
• Canned Corn
• Canned Fruit
• Breakfast Cereal
• Hot Cereal

They have also mentioned items they are least requesting at this time:

• Bottled Water
• Potato Chips
• Seasonal Items (i.e. cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie mix, peppermint flavored items, holiday themed item

They ask for these items to be in boxes, cans, plastic bottles or non-breakable jars and do not have to be refrigerated.

In addition to collecting non-perishable food donations, we have also set up a Virtual Food Drive through Philabundance where you are able to make monetary donations.

Please also take a moment to click here and read a special message from our present, Scott Hoffman.

If interested in participating and would like us to drop a bin off at your location, please let us know. If you’d like to drop off your donation of non-perishable items, deliveries can be made to Jade International Monday thru Friday between 9am – 4pm.

For further information or questions regarding the food drive, please contact Caitlin Walsh at ca***********@ja******.com or (610) 522-9300 ext. 122.

Why Hunger Relief Matters

Food insecurity continues to impact thousands of families across the Greater Philadelphia region. According to Philabundance, over 700,000 people in the Delaware Valley face hunger every year — including children, seniors, and working families. This food drive gives all of us the opportunity to step in and support those who need it most.

Join Us in Making a Difference

Whether you’re contributing a single can of food, organizing a donation bin at your workplace, or giving through the virtual drive, every effort counts. Together, we can help Philabundance meet the growing need and spread a little more comfort this season.

We encourage businesses, schools, community groups, and individuals to get involved. If you have ideas for collaboration or would like to promote the drive through your own networks, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Stay Connected

Be sure to follow us on [LinkedIn/Facebook/Instagram – add actual links if available] to see updates on the drive, photos from the drop-off, and the incredible impact we’re making together. We’ll also be sharing highlights from Camp Out for Hunger week!

Thank you for your continued support — and for helping Jade International bring hope to our neighbors this holiday season.
