Pennsylvania ranks sixth in the nation for the number of food-insecure residents. This sobering statistic reminds us that neighbors facing hunger are closer than we may realize.
At Second Harvest Food Bank, a program of Community Action Lehigh Valley, we partner with more than 200 food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters, and other community organizations to help ensure families and individuals across our region have access to the nutritious food they need to thrive.
Together, we can make a difference in the fight against hunger. bit.ly/4xXux5s ... See MoreSee Less

Fresh, nutritious food is something everyone deserves access to, and we work hard to make sure our neighbors have it.
Through our client-choice pantry, the families we serve can select the foods that work best for them, including a variety of fresh produce. It's about more than filling a bag. It's about dignity, choice, and making sure people feel cared for when they walk through our doors.
If you or someone you know could use some support, we're here for you. Visit allentownfoodbank.org/how-to-get-food/ to learn more. ... See MoreSee Less

Here's a look at what your support made possible this year. 💙
Together, we served 52,216 people across Lehigh County, distributed 937,307 pounds of food, and grew our volunteer pool by 25%. Behind every one of those numbers is a neighbor, a family, and a moment that mattered.
None of this happens without the people who show up for our community, whether through donating, volunteering, or simply spreading the word. Thank you for being part of it.
