Philabundance

Philabundance is a very good organization they truly care about the community and the people they serve. Would Absolutely Recommend a great place to volunteer and give back to the community.

It is an excellent non-​profit and place to volunteer. They do help fight hunger in the area.
However, if you are purchasing food from them to give out to others, expect them to be difficult to work with.
They will become involved in things with your organization and telling you what to do or not do that have nothing to do with food distribution.

Philabundance has their stuff together. They did a great job at setting us up so we could just «go» and get the most out of our volunteer hours. They have a wonderful staff and quite a few of them are interesting characters.
I have always been a big believer in Philabundance’s mission, but after spending the day volunteering, I have bought in to their cause even more. Donate food or time or both and contribute to this wonderful city of ours.

Great place and (sadly?) a much needed service in the City of Philadelphia. Staff was very professional and well trained.

Great charity and a great volunteer option if you have some time; well organized, people are nice, and just a good, rewarding experience.
Aside from during the holidays, considering checking if they need help (aside from financial) anytime during the year.

*This review is for the Tuesday night volunteer shift at the Galloway St location*
In my opinion, Philabundance is one of the best non profits around. What they do is work to reduce food insecurity within the Philadelphia region. One of the ways they do this is with the volunteer program on Tuesday night from 6 to 830 pm.
At this particular location, large quantities of donated food is sorted out and packaged in smaller boxes to be donated to individual food banks around the region. Each night, there is a specific project that will completed.
What I like about Philabundance (and what you may like if you are looking for a volunteer program to get involved with) is that each night there is one single project to be completed. You really feel like you make a difference and are actually helping needy people to get access to healthy food.
Please visit the Philabundance website for more information on this volunteer program, as well as many others they offer at their various locations.

I am a huge supporter of Philabundance as well as other food-​related charitable organizations in Philadelphia and NYC.
Philabundance works with schools, businesses, corporations and community groups to gather and distribute non-​perishable food for those who need it.
