Food Helpers
Weakening the chain of events that leads to food insecurity. Located in Brownsville PA, Food Helpers
Food insecurity is a pressing issue that affects many households, even those with two parents working full-time. Traditional food banks rely on government funding which is calculated based on the Federal poverty calculation, leaving some families without access to much-needed aid. At Food Helpers, we believe in breaking away from this system and serving every household in need. Our goal is to create sustainable communities with equitable access to aid, education, and resources. #foodhelpers #washingtoncounty
