WGAL, Central Pennsylvania Food Bank Launch Weeklong Fundraiser Amid High SNAP Demand

WGAL has partnered with the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank to launch a weeklong "Hunger Can't Wait" online donation drive aimed at supporting individuals struggling to access food without SNAP benefits. The drive emphasizes that every donated dollar provides four meals and stays within the Susquehanna Valley, where over a quarter of a million people currently receive SNAP assistance. The Pennsylvania Department of Human Services reports significant SNAP reliance across various counties, highlighting the widespread need for food support within the state. This initiative reflects ongoing efforts to address food insecurity in the region by mobilizing community contributions to meet urgent hunger needs.
