The Factory Market fills food-insecure homes with the ingredients needed to make free meals. We provide nutritional food in a setting and system of dignity. Through goal achievement and appointments with their advocate, individuals earn Factory Bucks to spend in the Factory Market.
Individuals schedule appointments to shop through the Market (our food pantry) for fresh produce, milk, eggs, toiletries, and pantry items. Through this system, shoppers use Factory Bucks they have earned to choose food items their families will enjoy and use.
About
How to Shop
Shopping in the Factory Market is done with Factory Bucks. You can earn Factory Bucks by meeting with your Advocate or by attending our various programs. You must have an appointment to shop in the market. Unfortunately we cannot accept walk-ins. Call us today at (717) 687-9594 to make an appointment or to learn more about how to earn Factory Bucks.
How to Donate
All of the food in the Market is donated. Individuals, churches, businesses, and the school district drop off food monthly or host their own food banks, food pantries, and food drives. When donating, please keep the following things in mind: We cannot accept any food that is expired. Buying a larger quantity of smaller things is always better than a smaller quantity of larger things! For example, 10 jars of normal-sized peanut butter is more practical than 3 huge jars of peanut butter from Costco. More families will be able to receive and make free meals from peanut butter if there are more jars. Thank you for your generosity!
Monthly Food List
Every month we post an update for our most-needed items. Check out our facebook or instagram or reach out to Kerri for specifics. Drop off at The Factory, 3293 Lincoln Hwy E Paradise, PA 17562, anytime Monday through Friday from 9:30am-4:30pm.
