DONATE MONEY ...
Our relationship with the Central Penn Food Bank allows us
to maximize the purchasing power of each donated dollar used
for obtaining food. Since the quantity and variety of
donated foods fluctuate each year, monetary gifts provide us
with the flexibility to provide the optimal nutritional mix
of foods throughout the year.
