FREE FOOD DISTRIBUTION

South Kensington Community Partners

No ID or proof of income is needed. *Distribution is "first come first serve" so it is best to arrive before or as close to 4pm as possible. There will be a line, but it will move quickly. One allotment per family but you can pick up for an elder or neighbor. Offerings vary by week but include fresh fruits and vegetables, milk, bread, chicken, and eggs. Masks are required and we ask that you maintain social distancing to protect yourself, our neighbors and volunteers.

We are able to do some local deliveries (19122/23): Please leave a message at 215-427-3463 to request delivery or to volunteer to help with distribution.

SKCP would like to thank our valued partner, the Arab American CDC. Together we say THANK YOU to the City of Philadelphia and the Share Food Program & THANK YOU to Penn Treaty Special Services District for additional support that enables us to extend our offering and support more households. Much appreciation to neighborhood businesses Al Amana Grocery, and Lost Bread Co for their generous donations of time, space, and product.
