The Chester County Food Bank is non-profit organization that collects, grows, processes, stores and distributes food to those who serve the hungry of Chester County, Pennsylvania. We are the central location for local agencies, like food cupboards, that service to individuals in need.
We distribute over 1.8 million pounds of food per year to over 90 organizations that include food cupboards, meal sites and non-profit organizations. Using the donations we receive of time, food and money our mission is to feed the over 40,000 local households that don’t have enough food.
We are more than food drives that put cans on the shelves of local food cupboards. The people behind the efforts at the food bank are focused on ending the cycle of hunger and poverty. Our programs are nutrition based, education focused on helping people live better lives. Fresh produce donations at cupboards, and healthy cooking classes are just the beginning of how we are making inroads in the fight against hunger.
