United Way Awards Loft $20,000

United Way of Lancaster County awarded the Loft Community Partnership a $20,000 Level Up & Launch grant. This money will help launch the Loft Community Kitchen. Loft Community Kitchen expands upon the Loft Food Pantry program by educating clients on growing food, healthy cooking and nutritious eating. Through cooking demonstrations, nutrition education and garden workshops, we will empower individuals to make healthier choices, reduce food insecurity and build self-sufficiency. Balanced meal kits with recipes will reinforce healthy cooking at home. We have the opportunity to triple the impact. Now through October 31st, the United Way of Lancaster County will match donations received by the Loft dollar per dollar up to $20,000. That would give us a total of $60,000 for the Loft Community Kitchen.
