ProJeCt of Easton

Call Directions Website Contact the organization

ProJeCt’s mission is to improve the community by helping people help themselves. We believe that education is the key to helping economically and educationally disadvantaged adults and children in the Lehigh Valley. Our school and workforce preparation services address the alarming poverty and low-literacy rates in the region by teaching clients the skills needed to succeed as a contributing member of society, whether in work, school, or as a citizen. All our programs are free, located in Easton, Pennsylvania, and are open to residents of Northampton and/or Lehigh County. Educational services offered include: Adult Literacy (including GED Preparation, English as a Second Language, and Adult Basic Education); U.S. Citizenship preparation; Family Literacy (including preschool and kindergarten preparation); a summer reading skills camp for elementary school-age students; and, a substance abuse prevention and behavioral health program for middle school-age students. We develop an individualized case management plan for each client and provide access to material needs supports, including our Food Pantry and emergency assistance voucher program. In addition, we have established partnerships with other community resources in order to provide a well-rounded, integrated solution to the complex problem of poverty. Our clients go on to college, jobs, and self-sufficiency, ready to participate in and improve our community.

Make a difference this week!

As we head into the holiday season, you can help a family in need by helping ProJeCt maintain a well-stocked food pantry. For more than thirty-years the Easton community has sustained our pantry operations. At this time we are gratefully accepting donations of non-perishable food items including cereal, shelf-stable meats, beans, and canned vegetables.

Please help during this season of gratitude.

Donation drop-off is every Tuesday 8 am - 2 pm, or by appointment. Email [email protected] for more information.

Helping our neighbors. Strengthening our community. Giving back with ProJeCt of Easton. đź’š

This holiday season, we're proud to once again partner with our friends at ProJeCt, an organization whose dedication to helping individuals and families throughout Easton and the Lehigh Valley makes our community a better place for all of us.

For more than 50 years, ProJeCt has been making a meaningful difference in the lives of our neighbors. From providing food and emergency assistance to offering adult education, family literacy, and programs that help children succeed in school, their work is rooted in a simple but powerful mission: helping people help themselves. Through education, compassion, and community support, they're creating opportunities for brighter futures.

Beginning this Thursday, November 5, and continuing through the end of the year, we invite you to round up your purchases at Belleville Market to support ProJeCt and the important work they do. Belleville Market will match every dollar donated, helping your generosity go twice as far.

And there's another way to give!

🥫 Holiday Food Drive

Now through Thanksgiving, we're collecting non-perishable food items at the Market to help stock ProJeCt's pantry. As a small thank-you, you'll receive 10 Belleville PERKS points for every item donated.

🎄 Meet ProJeCt at Our Holiday Open House

Join us this Thursday, November 5, from 5–8 PM, when members of the ProJeCt team will be here to share more about their mission, the neighbors they serve, and the difference your support makes right here in our community.

At Belleville, we believe a neighborhood department store should be about more than the things we sell. It's about the people, the connections, and the community that make Easton such a special place.

Thank you for helping us make this season a little brighter for our neighbors.

Rooted in Easton. Inspired by Europe. Giving back to the place we call home. đź’š
