Food pantries Crawford County.
Churches, charities, and government offices in Crawford County often operate food pantries. They provide assistance to anyone in need, with a focus on low income families, children, and senior citizens that need nutritional support.
The food banks and pantries are run by volunteers. They also use donated groceries, money from fund raisers, meals from local restaurants as well as bakeries, to serve the needy. Mostly due to the reliance on donations, as well as demand, the food pantries in Crawford County have limited hours. The cupboards may also not always be full.
