Our Partners In Service

We can only succeed in helping others if we work together as a community.

Words of thanks from some outstanding non-profits we help support

West Chester Food Cupboard

https://westchesterfoodcupboard.org/

The West Chester Food Cupboard commits to provide a variety of fresh and nonperishable healthy food to those in need…because no one should go hungry.

 

You just helped change life for neighbors in need in our community!

 

Thank you for your thoughtful online donation to the West Chester Food Cupboard, given on behalf of the BJ Montgomery Discovery Foundation. Your gift will be used to help the many local families around us who are struggling with food insecurity: neighbors with children who are low wage households, people with disabilities, veterans, the elderly, or people impacted with short-term job loss.

 

We are especially grateful for your help as we all are dealing with the challenges of rising prices, distribution problem, etc. We remain committed to distributing as much food as possible to those in need, and we couldn’t do it without the help of our community supporters like you.

 

We are very grateful to you for your support. Thank you so much.

 

2020: I have been a volunteer at the WCFC for the last 8 years and see first hand the struggles that our clients experience. I wanted to send a personal thank you for your recent generous donation to the Cupboard.

 

I would also like to share with you the continual gratitude and blessings our clients extend to us and our donors, like you, each time they come in. They are truly very, very grateful.

 

The current environment continues to be very challenging and your gift will be a tremendous help purchasing food for our increasing number of clients. So many have been affected by Covid-19 and continue to find themselves struggling to get by.

 

Although our holidays may be different due to the pandemic, one thing that remains unchanged is our collective spirit of giving and the generous support of our community. Thank you for being a great example of that!

Thank you for supporting Friends Association with your gift. You gift will be invested where it matters most – our future together as neighbors.

 

As we approach our 200th anniversary, we are keenly aware of the foundation of our organization and the stores of those who have come before us. It is through the resilience of our neighbors over the years that we have persevered through two centuries and continue to work together to invest in families and in the stability of home.

 

With you, we are creating the next chapters in the story of Friends Association. Thank you for coming alongside us in the dream of a community where no one is un-housed – where every single one of our neighbors has the ability to dream and to write their own life’s story built on the foundation and stability of a home.
