Helping our neighbors thrive through sharing the resources they need most: food, clothing, & connection to services so they can thrive.

Together with Street Medicine, we’re transformin Together with Street Medicine, we’re transforming lives through compassionate care. #HealthForAll #CommunitySupport undefined
At the Lancaster County Food Hub, we are doing our At the Lancaster County Food Hub, we are doing our best to keep up with the demand of our neighbors needing food. This is what our neighbors receive when they come to us. However, a depletion in food available through our normal channels and the rising need make it difficult to include all the good-for-you foods that families need to thrive.
How can you help? 

♥️Host a Food Drive: rice, soups, proteins (canned tuna, chicken, salmon), peanut butter, and dry or canned beans. 
♥️🔗 Donate Today: bit.ly/Food-Hub-Donate - For every $1 you donate, we can purchase $6 of food through wholesale providers. 

Every gift matters. Your generosity is greatly appreciated. #lancasterfoodhub #fooddrive #neighbortoneighbor #donation #ExtraGive #IGiveExtra #StretchingYourDonation
🕵️‍♀️🥫 Decoding Food Dates — Don’t Toss It Too Soon!

Understanding those little dates on your food can help reduce waste and fight hunger:
📅 Best if Used By / Before – The flavor is best by this date, but the food is often still good afterward.
🛒 Sell By – For stores to know how long to display the item. It’s still safe to eat beyond this date.
🍽️ Use By – The last date for peak quality. It's not a safety unless it is baby formula.

Before throwing food away, check first,  it might still be perfectly fine!
Less waste = more meals for neighbors in need. ❤️
The Food Hub accepts all in-date food and cans with no dents. Monday - Friday 9:30 AM - 3:30 PM at 812 N. Queen Street, Lancaster - Come to garage door labeled Dock B. Thank you for your generousity!

When one of our neighbors experiencing homelessness heard that another had been hospitalized, they asked the Outreach team if there was a Get Well Soon card that all could sign and send. Small acts of kindness make a big difference, especially in difficult times. It's about letting someone know that they are not alone. ❤️#LancasterFoodHub #GetWellSoon #CommunityCare #KindnessMatters #OutreachCenter

Serving with Dignity: Making ends meet 💕 When Serving with Dignity: Making ends meet 💕

When neighbors come to us for help, they are served with dignity and can choose what they need, when they need it, by "shopping" in the clothing bank for the items, styles, sizes, and quantities that work for them.

Lucy* is a Lancaster neighbor who visited us for the first time last month and was experiencing a significant career change. She was going on an interview and needed professional clothing, and was able to find several items with us that suited her needs. The following month, Lucy returned to announce that she wouldn't be needing clothes anymore because she got the job! She was proud to share that now she could get back on her feet financially.

At the Lancaster County Food Hub, we believe that everyone deserves to feel respected, no matter their circumstances. This approach empowers our neighbors to make decisions for themselves and their families, restoring a sense of normalcy and control during difficult times.

Support us during the 24 hour Extra Give on November 21st.

At the Lancaster County Food Hub, sweet moments go beyond dessert — they’re about dignity, joy, and celebration. ❤️

Through generous food recovery donations, sometimes a family picking up groceries finds a birthday cake among the shelves. 🎂 For a parent able to celebrate their child, or a neighbor marking another year of hope, that cake means so much more than dessert.

Thank you to our community partners and donors who make these special moments possible. Every item, from a can of soup to a sweet treat, helps remind our neighbors that they are seen, valued, and cared for. 💕
