UPMC Cardiovascular Dept
Welcome to our 2nd Annual UPMC Cardiovascular Virtual Food Drive!!!! Join us on our continued fight to end hunger in our community.
We are strong supporters of the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank, one of the largest providers of charitable food in Pennsylvania. Right now, there are currently more than 337,000 people in central Pennsylvania making impossible choices between buying groceries and paying for other critical expenses such as housing, medication, and childcare. We are looking to exceed last year's donations of $2,143.40.
We can make sure our neighbors don’t have to make these tough choices. Because we believe in the Food Bank’s mission of fighting hunger, improving lives and strengthening our communities, we have decided to help. We have launched a Virtual Food Drive to raise needed funds for the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank. Your gift will help:
- Provide food boxes to homebound, at-risk seniors who can't leave home to purchase groceries
- Deploy mobile food pantries to high-need areas of our community
- Partner with schools to feed families through School Pantry and Backpack programs
