In a humble spirit of dependence on Divine Providence, the Barn for the Poorest of the Poor relies upon the diligent efforts and generous offerings of many people, including co-workers, volunteers, family, friends, and benefactors to continue our vital work to deliver donated food to those most in need. We thank all of those involved for living the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ and supporting the Barn’s efforts to assist the poorest of the poor. 
All of us involved with the Barn for the Poorest of the Poor are inspired by the vision of our founder, Barney Welch, to help those less fortunate than us. Fortunately, Barney’s vision for the Barn has continued uninterrupted thanks to the tireless commitment of many co-workers, volunteers, and benefactors. We are all inspired each day in our support of the Barn by Blessed Mother Teresa’s example and by Barney’s simple but powerful words…”trust in Divine Providence”.

Volunteers are needed on selected days or evenings to assist with various activities at our storage facility located in Middletown, NJ. Please send an e-mail to [email protected] or call Karin at (732) 241-9846 to request more details on these volunteer opportunities at our storage facility.
