Our Mission

 Swissvale Cares, Inc. manages the Swissvale Community Food Pantry (SCFP). We are an agency member of the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank (GPCFB) We are a volunteer organization serving 200 families per month.

Distributions are bi-monthly serving the food insecure in Swissvale & the surrounding communities. In addition we offer produce distributions monthly March through October. The first Friday of the month we provide the residents of Swissavle Towers the opportunity to shop at their facility.

412 Food Rescue & the local farm market supplement our food & produce offerings. Local boy scout troops, the postal service, St Joseph the Worker Parish, Swissvale Presbyterian Church the Knights of Columbus & Kopp Glass among other community groups supplement our distributions with yearly food drives & monetary donations.

In addition Restoration Community Church provides infant & toddler diapers.

Angels Corner provides clothing & toys for infants & children.

We rely on funding provided by grants & private & public donations.

Our volunteer staff is committed to our mission of continuing to provide for the food insecure.
