Through Full Cart Virtual Food Pantry, 32,125 servings of food were delivered directly to residents’ homes.
In partnership with U.S. Hunger and the Lehigh Valley Food Policy Council, Full Cart Virtual Food Pantry is an emergency food solution that increases access to nutritious food by delivering directly to families’ homes. Families and individuals complete an online survey and grocery order, and the food box is shipped directly to their door. One box feeds one person for up to six weeks and a family of four up to 10 days.
“In one year, I lost my job, got evicted and struggled to get by. I am beyond thankful for Full Cart.”
