Since the Covid-19 crisis, the demand for food is at an all-time high as residents struggle finically during these uncertain times. This demand has definitely been seen at the Second Harvest Food Bank of NW PA.
Karen Seggi, Executive Director at Second Harvest Food Bank of NW PA said, “We went from you know 22 calls in the month of February to 777 calls of people needing help and asking us to connect them with food pantries. One of the first things they need are food.”
The Second Harvest Food Bank of NW PA, like other Feeding Pennsylvania food banks, has seen an incredible increase and need since the COVID-19 pandemic. And — with the increase in need, comes an increase in time, resources, and funds.
Join us on Tuesday, May 5th for our #givingtuesdaynow campaign to help food banks like the Second Harvest Food Bank of NW PA. For more information, go to https://feedingpa.org/givingtuesdaynow/

Now more than ever, Feeding Pennsylvania and the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank relies on volunteers to fulfill their vision that no one should be hungry. Last year, more than 7,700 volunteers (working individually and as part of group efforts) donated 72,000 hours of their time to help their neighbors in need.
We want to thank you for your time, energy, and passion. Your hard work and dedication are greatly appreciated. YOU help make a difference and touch so many lives in your very own community when volunteering at the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank.
At Feeding Pennsylvania, we have one goal—to ensure no one in Pennsylvania is hungry. During this unprecedented time, our member food banks are coming together to help Pennsylvanians who would otherwise go without food for themselves and their families.
Together, greater things will be accomplished for our neighbors in need. Join us in our fight against hunger. For more information, go to feedingpa.org/support-our-mission/ to see how you can support our efforts.

The charitable food network, GIANT, and Buona Food cares about keeping nutritious food on everyone's table — especially during the COVID-19 crisis. But, we cant do this alone. To feed everyone we need everyone's help. This is about more than groceries—it’s about taking care of one another and being careful not to over buy. Take some for you, and leave enough for all. #moreforall
