About this organization
Mission
Our mission is to serve the Derry Township community by providing food and assistance with the temporary needs of families and individuals in financial distress.
About
A Hershey Pennsylvania-based all volunteer, non-profit organization dedicated to eradicating hunger and promoting dignity within our community for over 55 years. It is not our policy to donate either food or money to any other charity or organization, but to use 100% of all contributions to directly help those we serve. Since 1968, we have been helping those in need in Derry Township by: - Distributing groceries twice each month - Providing emergency financial assistance to clients facing extreme hardship - Referring clients to Social Services and other agencies for more assistance - Working with Derry Township Police to provide limited assistance to transients on a case-by-case basis as needed.
