We see a food-secure future for everyone in the greater Phoenixville area and work to make this a reality by modeling the concept of "community feeding community" through our tireless efforts to ensure everyone is fed. We strive to involve all of our neighbors in the process of securing access to healthy, nutritious food so that no one goes hungry when there is more than enough to go around.
