Lunch with Exchange: People In Need Coalition

PINC was founded in 2019 by a group of volunteers who recognized that vulnerable populations often struggle with accessing food during hours when other services are typically unavailable. PINC's unique model allowed them to grow in 2020 while other food banks and soup kitchens were closed due to the coronavirus. In 2024, PINC served 63,115 meals.

At the heart of PINC is a simple mission: to provide fresh, healthy meals to those in need without barriers. Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, volunteers prepare and serve 400 - 600 to-go meals, designed to be nutritious, filling, and easy to eat on the go or at home. Meals are prepared based on food donations from local businesses and grocery stores. PINC's mission to feed anyone in need means no one gets turned away without a meal.

Bonnie Champagne and Michelle Stratton, volunteers at PINC, are looking forward to sharing with you the amazing service PINC provides to the vulnerable population in our area.
