The second annual PB&J for United Way drive was a big success and we thank you for helping us spread the word to the community.

United Way of Chester County and the Chester County Food Bank held their second annual Community PB&J for United Way Drive last month. A friendly competition between local service organizations and businesses produced dozens of local drives, cumulatively collecting over 9,000 pounds of peanut butter and jelly products for the cause. The drive originated as a call to action to help local food pantries keep their shelves stocked over the summer months, when donations are typically at their lowest. The Matt Gorham Group of Keller Williams (Pictured) reigned again this year as PB&J King and singlehandedly brought in 2,093 pounds of PB&J, nearly tripling their donation over last year.
