    Rise: Networking for a Cause launches on February 6th, 2020. Members can register for free through the chambers website. Non-Members will also be able to participate in the RISE series through a donation made to the participating non-profit.

    About Washington County Food Bank: 

    Taking a More Innovative Approach to the Food Bank Model

    For over 42 years the Greater Washington County Food Bank, a non-profit organization, has been providing groceries and nutritional information/education to food insecure residents of Washington County. It is estimated that Washington County currently has over 26,000 people who are food insecure.  We distribute food through our network of 38 distribution sites (13 public sites and 18 senior hi-rise/apartment locations) and with agencies throughout the county. Currently over 30% of our recipients are children under the age of 18, and over 20% are seniors. We rely primarily on community support to meet these objectives in a caring and compassionate way.

     

    About Food Helpers: 

    Food Helpers connects those in need with those who can help. It’s altruistic name brings our community in Washington County and Southwestern Pennsylvania together as someone who can help. By designating Greater Washington County Food Bank, Healthy Habits Training Center, Country Thrift Market, and The FARM as four unique programs under Food Helper’s umbrella, we can provide a well-rounded experience of escaping the food insecurity cycle. Greater Washington County Food Bank focuses on distribution of the freshest, locally grown produce, providing nutritious meals instead of just calories in bulk. Healthy Habits Training Center will get involved with educational resources, providing classes and opportunities to make meaningful changes to overcome personal struggles leading to food insecurity. Country Thrift Market will continue to offer a discounted retail experience compared to available options in the area. The Farm will provide hands-on opportunities for learning to grow one’s own food and becoming self-sustaining in the food supply chain. Together, we can all be Food Helpers.
