The Greater Berks Food Bank helps these people by distributing nearly 3.5 million pounds of food annually to more than 200 programs which feed the hungry.

How You Can Help:

The Reading CROP Walk, organized by the Reading Berks Conference of Churches, has raised over $750,000 to help the hungry. Together CROP Walkers raise awareness and funds for international relief and development as well as funds for the Greater Berks Food Bank.
