With the support of local churches, organizations, individuals, and businesses we can make a difference in our community. Mission Statement Our purpose is to serve the Derry Township community by providing food and assistance with the temporary needs of families and individuals in financial distress. What We Do Hershey Food Bank and Community Outreach is an all volunteer 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization. Our board oversees the operations and maintenance of the
Hershey Food Bank located at
120 East Derry Road, Hershey Pa, 17033. The Food Bank distributes food twice monthly, and also prepares food baskets at Thanksgiving and Christmas to families identified and referred from churches, schools and others as being in need. In addition, Christmas presents and gift certificates for children's clothing are included with the Christmas food baskets. For established clients we may also provide financial assistance for utility bills and rent payments on an emergency basis.
Most cases are referred to Social Service agencies for further assistance. Budget counseling is available and provided free of charge. Hershey Food Bank and Community
Outreach makes available, through the Derry Township police, gas and
food coupons from local businesses that may be given to transients
when authorized by the food bank. On rare occasions we may
provide temporary lodging or transportation to transients on a case by case basis. |
