About Us
We mobilize our community to ensure access to real, healthy food.
The Chester County Food Bank was formed in 2009 to address the escalating hunger problem in the county. Our primary goal was, and still is, to have a viable, sustainable organization that secures, manages and distributes food to those in need.
Today, we are the central hunger relief organization serving more than 160 partner agencies in Chester County, PA. Through our network of food cupboards, hot meal sites, shelters and other social service organizations, we distribute over 3 million pounds to our neighbors with limited or uncertain access to adequate food.
We are, however, more than food drives that put cans on shelves. We take a steadfast approach to provide food and build support in the neediest communities, while raising awareness and engagement among our community. Visit our Food Security Initiatives to learn about how our programs are making inroads in the fight against hunger.
By creating an individual fundraiser, team fundraiser, or virtual food drive, you’ll not only raise money to support our hungry neighbors, you’ll also help spread awareness of food insecurity.
Thank you for joining a growing community of fundraisers who are making a lasting impact.
