The New Britain Baptist Church houses and manages a community
Food Larder, providing food for both individuals and families
in need of assistance in Central Bucks County. The Food Larder
is a designated food distribution site of the Opportunity Council
of Bucks County. Support comes from government allocated funds,
area churches and synagogues, the United States Postal Service,
the Boy Scouts of America, the Girl Scouts of America, Keller Williams Realtors, local
businesses and organizations, and individual donors. 100% of
all donations of food, supplies, or financial donations directly
benefit those who need the help of the Larder.
Last year, the Larder distributed over $123,000 worth of food
items to nearly 175 families on a regular basis. The Larder
serves clients of the Opportunity Council of Bucks County and
individuals referred from churches and organizations as well
as any other resident in need residing in the Central Bucks
County area. Individuals or families in need may receive assistance
by contacting any of the telephone numbers listed below.
The Food Larder is entirely operated and staffed by volunteers,
and new volunteers are always needed! Volunteers are needed
both to staff the Larder during its hours of operation, and
to stock shelves in the evening. If you can spare a few hours
on a weekly or on a monthly basis please contact the Volunteer
Information person listed below.
