Bebashi’s FoodFirst Food Pantry is the largest food pantry in North Philadelphia providing pantry staples to nearly 3,300 individuals each year. In addition, Bebashi currently operates five offsite school and community pantries which serve students and their families.
During the COVID-19 pandemic the number of persons who are in need of our services has grown exponentially and we rely on donations from individuals and organizations to be able to meet this growing demand.
You can help Bebashi feed Philadelphians in need by donating food and toiletries or, get your community involved and host a Bebashi Food and Toiletries Drive.
Here are some useful tips for hosting a successful drive.
