Feeding Our Neighbors Fund
With the temporary halt of SNAP benefits due to the federal government shutdowns and the lack of a PA state budget, local food pantries are seeing increased demand. To help families in need, we’ve established the Feeding Our Neighbors Fund to provide immediate grants to pantries located in and serving Carbon County.
We’ve launched the fund with a $5,000 contribution from our Fund for Carbon County and now, we’re inviting our community to join us in growing this fund. Every donation will help ensure no one in our community goes hungry during this critical time.
Once SNAP benefits are reinstated, the Feeding Our Neighbors Fund will transition into a permanent fund to provide ongoing support for food pantries and to address food insecurity in Carbon County.
