2021 Metropolis-wide Philoptochos fundraiser

2021 Fundraiser to Benefit Food Banks Across Metropolis

In place of the annual Daffodil Luncheon, the Philoptochos chapters of the Metropolis of Pittsburgh are holding a fundraiser to benefit 11 different foodbanks throughout the Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. All donations – 100 percent of monies contributed – will be given to food banks.

“Among the most devastating outcomes of the pandemic has been the increase in individuals and families facing food insecurity,” said Joyce Spanakis, chair of the Daffodil Luncheon. “Hunger in America is on the rise. Now, more than ever, people are turning to food pantries and food banks for help. Our Metropolis is poised and ready to help with this increased need.”
