PCC Food Bank Program — 2012 update

Thank you for helping the hungry

Since 1988, PCC has used cash donations from shoppers to purchase nutritious bulk food at wholesale prices to feed the hungry in neighborhoods served by PCC. Volunteers from the community repackage the bulk food, making the program a great example of neighbor helping neighbor.

The PCC Food Bank Program had another successful year in 2012. The program raised $99,828 which supported 10 local food banks by purchasing 62,265 pounds of bulk food. More than 900 volunteers pitched in to help repackage the food.
