Phoenixville Area Community Services Nurturing food security in the Phoenixville Area since 1972. In 2020 we’ve taken steps to meet that goal. We were awarded a grant to purchase a refrigerated van.
(1)

Our goal is to provide access to healthy, nutritious food and this requires adequate refrigeration and storage space. An important part of our vision for food distribution, this van will help us pick up and transport fresh food. We purchased a new building at 101 Buchanan St. This building can support our mission, which is to nurture food security in our community. Please consider donating to our Building the Future campaign. We are most grateful for any and all support. https://bit.ly/2UqlV9n

A big thank you to Maddies Castle for donating pet food to Phoenixville Area Community Services!

Pet food donations are an important part of supporting our neighbors. For many families, pets are beloved members of the household, offering companionship, comfort, and unconditional love. When families are struggling to afford groceries and other essentials, keeping their pets fed can become an added challenge.

By donating pet food, you help families care for their furry companions while easing the pressure on their household budgets. These donations help keep pets with the people who love them, rather than forcing families to make difficult choices between feeding themselves and feeding their pets.

Thank you, Maddie’s Castle, for helping PACS support both our neighbors and their four-legged family members!

A huge THANK YOU to The Giving Tree for donating 229 sandwiches made by children and their families participating in the program to PACS!

The Giving Tree teaches children the importance of kindness, compassion, and giving back through hands-on service projects. This wonderful donation is a great example of those lessons in action, bringing children and families together to support neighbors in our community.

We are so grateful to the children and families who took the time to prepare these sandwiches and help ensure our neighbors have access to food. Your generosity means so much to PACS and the people we serve!

Want to get involved? Learn more about The Giving Tree, explore their programs, and discover ways to participate in their mission of teaching children to give back.

Do you have a Saturday or two to spare each month? PACS could use your help! 💚

PACS is looking for volunteers to help keep our Saturday operations running smoothly, and you do NOT need to commit to every Saturday! Even volunteering just one or two Saturdays a month would have a tremendous impact on our organization and the neighbors we serve.

Our greatest need is volunteer drivers! We are looking for individuals who can drive the PACS van on Saturdays to recover food from our community partners. These food pickups help us keep our shelves stocked and provide fresh, nutritious options for our neighbors.

Not interested in driving? We have other Saturday volunteer opportunities available, too!

Whether you can help once a month, twice a month, or more often, we would love to have you join our volunteer team!

A few hours of your Saturday can go a long way at PACS!

👉 Apply to volunteer here: https://www.pacsphx.org/become-a-volunteer
