It is one of the biggest days of the year when it comes to donating food in New Jersey – and one company has turned it into an event – Goya Gives Day.
Lots of organizations helped collect and distribute 100,000 pounds of food. The group Lead, Acquire, Do, Inspire was on-site at Goya's headquarters in Jersey City to help out. Youngsters with the Explorers Club of the Paterson Police Department helped out as well.
All this food will be given out in the weeks ahead.
