The American College of Physicians’ Pennsylvania Eastern Chapter (PA-ACP) will be conducting a volunteer-driven Leap into a Day of Giving in partnership with The Wright Centers for Graduate Medical Education, Community Health, and Patient & Community Engagement to address food insecurity in our region. PA-ACP members and inclusive community partners are invited to support and staff a pop-up food pantry for members of our community at Weston Field, 982 Providence Road, Scranton, on Thursday, February 29th from noon-3 p.m.
Free prepackaged bags of nonperishable food items will be provided to those in need. Food resources include shelf-stable pantry items such as pasta, soups, cans of vegetables, tuna, chicken, and more. Bags will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis due to a limited supply.
Volunteers representing our PA-ACP Eastern Chapter will pack and distribute the food boxes.
The mission of the ACP is to enhance the quality and effectiveness of health care by fostering excellence and professionalism in the practice of medicine. Participatory citizenship and engagement in the community are vital components of professionalism.
