Description

CHANNELS Food Rescue was incorporated in June 1989 with a vision to alleviate hunger in South Central Pennsylvania. Inspired by an article in The Philadelphia Inquirer, which covered the work which the organization, Philabundance, has done to fight hunger in Southeastern Pennsylvania, Jean Beatty researched the possibility of using this model in our area. Aided by the first volunteers from the Pennsylvania Medical Society Alliance, the model was successfully adapted to the unique needs of the Harrisburg area in an effort to alleviate hunger closer to home. Over the past 18 years, CHANNELS has been instrumental in expanding the awareness of the hunger issue in our area and has taken steps to alleviate the problem in the Capital City region of Pennsylvania. Our organization currently incorporates seven programs--all designed to address a different segment of needy persons. These programs are: Regular pickup and delivery; Family outreach; Plant-A-Row; The Kitchen School; Kids Cafes; New Leaf Catering, and Nutrition Education in our Kids Cafes. We continue to be open to new ways to serve the needy people.
