Shippensburg Food Resources

Community Meals: Community meals are FREE and you do not need to register or RSVP. Just show up! During the pandemic, all meals are drive-thru or grab-n-go. Meals are first come, first served. While the churches try to make enough food to feed everyone, due to the increase in participants, churches are doing their best to meet the need. Please be understanding about changes or smaller meals as they try to serve everyone.

​

Food Pantries: You must live within the geographical area of the Shippensburg Area School District. You do not need an appointment for the first time that you show up.

​

Hound Packs: During the school year (not in the summer), any child (through 12th grade) living in the SASD can receive a free bag of food for over the weekend. It includes 6 meals to last until school begins on Monday. If your child is homeschooled, attending school remotely or going to a private school, we will work with you to receive your food bag. Questions? Contact their school counselor or Jami at coordinator-scrc@shipresources.org or 717.477.1961
