CLIENT FOOD DISTRIBUTION
FISH is located at 800 West Chestnut St., Perkasie, PA 18944. Our mailing address is PO BOX 9, Perkasie, PA 18944.
We are open for food distribution:
Monday and Wednesday 3-5 PM
Thursday evening 6-8 PM
Friday and Saturday 9-11 AM
To receive food you should be a resident of the Pennridge School District.
Prospective clients must present a valid ID. We prefer an updated photo ID, but a current piece of mail will be accepted. IDENTIFICATION should be presented for each member of the household.
NOTE: Identification for children in the household IS required. A medical card or birth certificate is acceptable.
Clients are required to renew their registration with FISH each year. Because we accept state and federal donated food, each client is required to fill out and sign a Self-Declaration of Income Form each year. (Registrations are renewed beginning each July.)
NOTICE: NEW CLIENT FOOD DISTRIBUTION POLICY
How It Works!
Clients may use the pantry ONE time per week.
Each week the client family may visit the WEEKLY area. This is where you will find miscellaneous boxed and canned items, bonus items, pet food, breads, baked goods, produce, dairy and some other refrigerated and frozen items.
During one of your weekly visits (one time per month) you will be permitted to visit the MONTHLY room. This is where you will find boxed and canned foods such as soups, veggies and fruit, pasta, cereal and more to stock up your cupboards. You will also receive a few meat selections, condiments, paper products and toiletries as they are available.
If you miss a shopping trip you may NOT double up the next month.
Concerning the once a month MONTHLY visit:
Clients whose last names begin with the letters A through J may visit the MONTHLY room either the 1st thru 7th or 15th thru 21st of each month.
Clients whose last names begin with the letters K through Z may visit the MONTHLY room either the 8th thru 14th or 22nd thru 28th of each month.
PLEASE ASK A VOLUNTEER FOR MORE INFORMATION OR FOR A SCHEDULE.
PLEASE: WE REQUEST THAT YOU ONLY TAKE FOOD THAT YOUR FAMILY CAN USE.
NOTE:
We do not turn anyone away who needs food.
***Those who live outside the school district, will be given an emergency food bag and redirected to a pantry location in their area.
