06 Dec The McGowan Charitable Fund Provides Food Support for Keystone Mission

Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, PA – Food security is a critical first step to ensuring that individuals facing homelessness can focus on transformational self-care and each step toward sustainable living.

The William G. McGowan Charitable Fund presented Keystone Mission with a $25,000 grant check to help fill the growing need of individuals seeking nutritious meals throughout the organization.

Among our regular church partnerships and food providers for weekend meal outreach, part of Keystone Mission’s outreach is serving nutritious meals – breakfast and lunch Monday through Friday – to welcome individuals further into the wrap-around services.

“This is our first grant to Keystone Mission and we are very happy to help them and support them in their work with the homeless,” said Mr. Leo McGowan, President of The McGowan Foundation.

“With the opening of our new Wilkes-Barre location, and seeing a rise in individuals seeking services, this could not have come at a better time! We provide healthy, nutritious meals daily, and this grant will go a long way, touch many lives, and leave an indelible impact on our guests and residents. Many thanks to the William G. McGowan Charitable Fund,” says Danielle O. Keith-Alexandre, CEO & Executive Director.

Keystone Mission is thankful for community partnerships like The William G. McGowan Charitable Fund for helping provide for the homeless, hungry, and hurting in Northeast PA.
