St. Andrew's Food Cupboard
Dedicated to serving the needs of the hungry
Over 400 households are provided meals each month through the St. Andrew's Food Cupboard.
Every age, race, and religion is serviced by the volunteers at the cupboard. Single mothers and their children are the majority of those whose needs are met.
We are part of a network of food pantries in Monroe County serving the 14609, 14613, 14615, and 14621 zip codes.
