Victory In Partnership Network (VIPN)
The Victory In Partnership Network connects food pantries, soup kitchens, and other community food programs within Philadelphia so they can coordinate resources and information. We use the feedback from our members to guide the resources and opportunities we bring back to them.
Participating organizations come together for online and in-person workshops, tours, and other programming to help them fight hunger in their communities. Members are also offered support in attaining funding, food resources, and leadership and organizational skills.
Food pantries, soup kitchens, and other community food programs, address the immediate need of hunger, while also having the capacity to build power and food sovereignty in their communities. It is through our collective power that we will be able to meaningfully build food security in the Greater Philadelphia Area.
