Bushkill Outreach Program is a community food pantry serving  Lehman Township in Pike County and Middle Smithfield Township in Monroe County, Pennsylvania, that has been serving people in the community for more than 30 years. It started out as a community social center whose members began to help out a few local families in need around the holidays. Over the years, the program has grown considerably, and it is now a state-registered food pantry, serving food to approximately 1,000 people on a monthly basis.

The Bushkill Outreach is currently in need of all types of food donations such as shelf-stable, nutritious items. Monetary donations are also appreciated and you can do so on their website here. Food donations can be dropped off on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 9am to 12pm at 216 Lehman Park Road, Bushkill, PA 18324.
