The New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA) announced plans to allocate an additional $5 million in state funding to Phase 3 of its Sustain & Serve NJ program. Sustain & Serve NJ provides nonprofit organizations with grants to support the purchase of meals from New Jersey restaurants that have been negatively impacted by COVID-19 and the distribution of those meals at no cost to recipients. The additional funding is expected to support the purchase of an additional 450,000 meals.

Eligible entities may receive reimbursement-based grants from $100,000 to $2,000,000 to support costs associated with the bulk purchasing of meals from New Jersey-based restaurants.
