PARSIPPANY — Caring Transitions of Parsippany is launching its second annual Handbags for Hunger campaign, a donation drive and charity auction aimed at supporting Nourish NJ’s mission to fight food insecurity among local seniors. Residents are encouraged to donate gently used handbags, jewelry, designer clothing, and accessories between February 9 and February 16.
Items collected will be auctioned online in early March, with 100% of proceeds going to Nourish NJ. Local pickup is available by appointment, and select donations can be dropped off at Nourish NJ’s Victory Gardens location.
“Every beautiful thing deserves an encore — and every neighbor deserves a meal,” said Tara Nielsen, owner of Caring Transitions of Parsippany. The company, which helps seniors with downsizing and estate transitions, views this effort as an extension of its mission to serve the community.
For more information or to schedule a donation pickup, community members can call or text (862) 332-1565.
