Greater Philadelphia Coalition Against Hunger
Real people. Real hunger. Real help.
Our Mission: Founded in 1996, the Greater Philadelphia Coalition Against Hunger strives to build a community where all people have the food they need to lead healthy lives. The Coalition connects people with food assistance programs and nutrition education; provides resources to a network of food pantries; and educates the public and policymakers about responsible solutions that prevent people from going hungry.
Our three programs address a spectrum of needs in Pennsylvania:
Hunger Fighters Network | SNAP (Food Stamp) Campaign | Policy Center |
The Hunger Fighters Network supports more than 150 food pantries, providing them with funding, training and other tools so they can help more people in their communities. | The SNAP Campaign helps Philadelphia residents apply for public benefits. Since 2002, we've assisted more than 50,000 people, mainly through our SNAP (Food Stamp) Hotline. | The Policy Center applies the data and experiences gained on the front lines to advocate for responsible anti-hunger policies that meet the real need in our communities. |
