About Philabundance: Philabundance is the regions largest hunger relief
organization. Approximately 27% of the food produced in the U.S. goes
to waste each year while millions of people go hungry. Philabundance
works to change this contradiction. In 2009, we acquired 21 million
pounds of food, distributing 17 million pounds across the Delaware
Valley and exporting 4 million pounds to assist other area food banks.

We serve low income residents at risk of hunger and malnutrition, of
which 23% are children and 16% are senior citizens. We provide food
through a network of agencies in the Delaware Valley. Our member
agencies include food cupboards, shelter or residential programs, social
service agencies, emergency kitchens, and neighborhood distribution
programs who reach people in need.

Please note that we are in South Philadelphia, near the sports
stadiums, and driving is the most convenient way to get to our office.
