Ten Years of Real, Healthy Food for Chester County

This past November we celebrated our 10th birthday and it is a great time as we head into a new decade to reflect on our past work in light of all that remains undone.

We invite you to learn more about our team and tour each department through our most recent annual report. While we are proud of our achievements, you’ll see new, alarming statistics about the pressing need for food right now in our communities. With new data from United Way of Pennsylvania, the “ALICE” report clearly outlines the gap between the cost of living in Chester County and the qualifications for benefits that are out of reach for many of our neighbors. We will continue to advocate for polices that promote food security and equitable access to food for the people we serve. These include the root causes of poverty and the compounding factors that contribute to hunger.

Ten years of critical work is an accomplishment we share only through generous involvement. As we define and roll out our next strategic plan, we are inspired by the prospects ahead. We encourage you to stay committed through our next 10 years, as we take the people of our community Beyond Hunger.
