Wilson Area Food Pantry

Did you know that the poverty rate for Berks County is 13.6%? Right here in West Lawn the poverty rate is 15.1%. In our surrounding communities our neighbors are experiencing similar circumstances: 10.0% in West Wyomissing, 13.3% in Sinking Spring, 18.0% in West Reading, and 36.6% in Reading. Poverty means our brothers and sisters are hungry. Are you able to help those that are food insecure, here in our community?

The Wilson Area Food Pantry needs volunteers. The food pantry has returned to indoor distribution inside our Community Center, which is held the third Friday of each month from 3 to 5pm. Help is also needed for setup up the day before from 2 to 4pm. Please contact Nancy Poole at (610) 678-5537 if you would like to help.
