Nourishing Our Heroes — VA Food Pantry

Have you had to cut the size of your meals or skip meals because there was not enough money for food? The VA food pantry runs the second and fourth Friday of every month from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. in the 7th floor LVA auditorium. Expect a mix of non-perishable items to choose from, within a given limit, to supplement your own pantry stock. Please bring a reusable grocery bag. Other local food assistance: Share Food Program, sharefoodprogram.org, (215) 223-2220; Philabundance, philabundance.org, (215) 339-0900; and the Share Senior Food Box Program, for applicants who meet criteria and may be eligible for home delivery boxes, (215) 223-2220. Connect with social work if you need help with SNAP, WIC, Meals on Wheels, MANNA, or other government food programs.
