September is Hunger Action Month, and it takes an entire community to make a difference! 🧡

As the month comes to a close, specifically, Tuesday, September 29 is Hunger Action Day.
Wear orange this Hunger Action Day to raise awareness about food insecurity, because no one should go hungry while good food goes to waste.



Did you know that right here in Chester, PA (19013), the poverty rate stands at 29%, and nearly 15% of our adult neighbors face daily food insecurity? These aren't just statistics—they are families, children, and seniors in our community who don't always know where their next meal will come from.

Adult Food Insecurity
Nearly 15% of all adults in the city report facing regular food insecurity. The food pantry is open Tuesday & Thursday, 9:00 AM – 11:45 AM to help Chester residents struggling with food insecurity.

St. Katharine Drexel Food Pantry distributed groceries to an average of 78 families EVERY week during August; feeding 1,280 residents.

Every action counts, no matter how small. Let’s work together to ensure no one in Chester goes hungry.

This month, St. Katharine Drexel Food Pantry is inviting you to turn awareness into action. Here are three powerful ways you can help us fight hunger locally:
• 🤝 Volunteer: Give your time to help us carry boxes to vehicles and assist local families during pantry hours.

🍎Have a backyard garden? We also welcome donations of surplus fresh garden produce to help provide nutritious options to our families!

• 💳 Donate Funds: Financial contributions allow us to purchase fresh, nutritious items in bulk to maximize our impact.
Every action counts, no matter how small. Let’s work together to ensure no one in Chester goes hungry.
