From the Director’s Table

Dear Friend,

You are simply amazing. Even though the holidays are a distant memory now, I’m reminded daily of the generosity you showed at the end of 2019. You not only put food on the table at a very special time of year, but you helped prepare Philabundance to serve even more people in the new year.

As troubling as it is, many seniors in our community are at risk of missing meals. It’s often just too difficult to pay winter heating bills, fill prescriptions and buy groceries during the cold winter months on a fixed income.

Because friends like you care about the well-being of this vulnerable population, seniors across the Delaware Valley have consistent access to healthy food despite the other expenses they face on a daily basis.

In this issue of The Feed, I’ve chosen a few stories to share with you that highlight the immense difference your gifts are making in our community right now. You’ll hear from Eddie, who can focus on caring for his sister and not finding their next meal, because you give so generously.

Thank you sincerely for your support. We’re working to connect even more neighbors with the nutritious food they need for better health and more fulfilling lives this year, and this work would not be possible without you.

You make a real difference for people on the brink of losing hope.

Gratefully,

 

 

Executive Director
