HARRISBURG — Pennsylvania Skill, whose skill games are manufactured by Pace-O-Matic and Miele Manufacturing, today donated $250,000 to Feeding Pennsylvania, the state association of Feeding America Food Banks, to help the growing number of families struggling with food insecurity.
The money from Pennsylvania Skill will be distributed among Feeding PA’s nine member food banks that serve all 67 counties across the commonwealth, and who are all seeing an alarming rise in need as a result of the economic instability caused by COVID-19. New unemployment claims surpassed 800,000 in Pennsylvania and many of these people are finding that they need food assistance to make ends meet.
The donation will pay for an average of 750,000 meals for needy families across the state. Locally, the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank, which covers 27 counties, will be receiving a portion of the donation.
