Free Food for Low_Income
MISSION STATEMENT:
Since 1947, the Lancaster County Food Hub has been providing for the basic human needs – food, clothing, shelter -- of struggling neighbors throughout our community. Through free distributions of food and gently-used clothing, the Food Hub reaches individuals and families over 100,000 times each year. Additionally, the Food Hub emergency overnight shelter and daytime outreach program offers year-round support to unsheltered adult men and women, helping to lift these neighbors into more sustainable life circumstances. The day and night shelter served over 600 unsheltered neighbors in 2022.
