The Hoboken Family Alliance is excited to launch "The Takeout Project" today. There's a need in our community to support local restaurants and help feed families affected by the pandemic. Due to COVID-19, our local restaurants can only serve at 35% capacity. This is a significant decrease in the amount of business they can conduct.
