Feeding 5,000

Thank you for allowing us to serve you. However, at this time, Feeding 5000 needs to temporarily pause from serving you and to focus on finding a new place for our operations and some reorganization and updates of the ministry. Our last distribution will be Saturday, November 15th. We hope to resume service early 2026. Thank you and God bless.

In the spirit of giving and sharing, let us extend a hand to those in need, offer a word of encouragement to those facing challenges, and spread kindness like confetti. For in these acts, we discover the true magic of Christmas—the ability to make a positive difference in the lives of others.

Feeding 5000 needs volunteers to help distribute meals and clothing to homeless men and women in Philadelphia on the first Saturday of every month. The places we serve in Philadelphia are usually Logan Circle, occasionally Love Park and/or Independence Mall. The hours are 9–11:30am. We leave from and return to New Covenant Presbyterian Church, 240 Creek Rd. in Mt. Laurel, 08054. Most likely you will not have to drive. Someone experienced will accompany you.

For the next six months or so the dates are: December 2nd, January 6th, February 3rd, March 2nd , April 6th, and May 4th. You may pick certain dates or do all. Will you help? We assure you; your heart will be warmed.

Drop an email to [email protected] and join us. Please put the words: 1st Saturday Volunteer in the subject line. If Saturdays are tough for you, there are many other opportunities to help.
