In alignment with the AGXPE commitment to giving back to the communities where we operate, we will also be running a food drive at this event. AGXPE Mid-Atlantic Chapter Leadership will be collecting non-perishable food items for donation to Manna on Main Street, in Lansdale, PA.
Manna on Main Street operates a food pantry and soup kitchen, as well as provides other important services to neighbors in need, and is committed to ending hunger in the North Penn region. Any non-perishable goods (on this list) that could be dropped off at the event would be greatly appreciated and help out needy families in these challenging times.
