Thank you to our generous donors during the Raise the Region campaign. We raised over $5,000 that will go directly to our services that will soon be affected by the reduced assistance reality for many families. We are currently serving approximately 350 households each month, and over 250 backpacks are sent home weekly with local students.
We accept food donations all year long. Food may be dropped off at the Food Cupboard (329 Center Street, Bloomsburg. PA 17815) Tuesdays, 9am-2:15pm, and Sundays, 8:30am-10am. There are also drop-off boxes outside the Food Cupboard and at the rectory entrance to St. Columba Church. You can call 570-784-0801 with any other questions. Or, you can donate now using PayPal on the Donate page (see above menu).

Several hundred pounds of food were donated to the Bloomsburg Food Cupboard last week through BU Police Department’s Food for Fines drive. Shown from left delivering food are Police Chief Ramon Welkom, officers Robert Neiderhiser and Scott Levan, and Jeff Helsel, president of the Bloomsburg Food Cupboard board of directors.
Pictured below are a few Central Columbia Middle School 6th graders whose grade-level efforts were noted for their hard work in collecting the most donations of food and money for the school’s annual food drive. They helped load up the donated items into the box truck that DYCO allowed us to use to save many trips back and forth to the Bloomsburg Food Cupboard. DYCO workers, Food Cupboard director Martha Sheehe, and Mr Chad Heintzelman, CCMS principal, are also included in the photo.

Another Tuesday and another helping hand by Giant Market employees from both Bloomsburg and Berwick stores. And this time, they brought turkeys and chicken for our clients and good cheer to our volunteers. And one Giant volunteer worked the turkey hat like a champ.
The Giant corporation packed 250 backpacks for our local Bloomsburg Area Panther Packs this week. Employees from our local and surrounding stores, as well as corporate employees, all worked to put together sacks full of many food items and some school supplies for our local children. They did an amazing job!!
