The Chester County Food Bank is staying busy year round, helping address the major food insecurity in the region as it plans to distribute boxes of food to students during the summer.
The Chester County Food Bank stays busy year round, helping address the major food insecurity in the region. "According to the MIT living calculator, here in Chester County , a family of four with two working adults, to meet all their needs, needs to make a little less than $140,000 a year to get by," said Nicholas Imbesi, the Senior Manager of Advocacy & Government Relations at the Chester County Food Bank.
That’s something the food bank is changing, starting with a box that has cool works of art by young volunteers on the outside, and food essentials inside. "We got some really kid-friendly snacks like sweet potato crackers and sun butter. It includes 15 different breakfast items, it also includes 10 lunches, and 30 snacks," said Mahoney.The boxes will be distributed once a month from June to August, per student.
