Ciocca Subaru donates food to Allentown Food Bank - Anne E
Dear Employees & Customers of Ciocca Subaru, On behalf of the Food Bank, I would like to thank you for your food donation of 341 pounds of essential items given on 4/4/23. Your donation allows us to keep our shelves stocked with items that we know our clients appreciate. It also allows our budget for purchasing food to be stretched a little further. Your support enables us to provide food assistance to 1,800+ low income households in the Allentown area every month. Your donation helps us provide vital food resources throughout the year. Due to inflation, we have seen an increase in need, and the Food Bank has served over 47,000 people this year. A recent Penn State University study reports 'over 12% of PA households were experiencing hunger at the end of 2020.' Our Food Bank provided food to over 13,000 families this year. We anticipate that number will continue to rise. Each visit provides our clients with enough groceries, including fresh fruits and vegetables, for a short period. It is with the generous donations, such as yours, that allows us to continue to serve those who are food insecure in our community. There is no way to aptly express our gratitude for your support. The staff and over 150 volunteers at the Food Bank are continually in awe of our community support and generosity as demonstrated through your donation. You are helping us make a difference! With sincere gratitude, Jennifer Kelley AAEFB Volunteer

Naomi Waits 12 Months to Find Her FUREVER Home! - Jackie B
Naomi came to our facility in September 2021 from an overcrowded city shelter in Philadelphia. Unfortunately, she was overlooked for an entire year! During this past year, we have seen a huge decrease in adoptions and an increase in lengths of stay, due to no fault of our dogs. Naomi sat for months looking for a home that would understand her and be the right fit! Well today was her day and a fitting day it was! On National #MakeADogsDay Naomi and five other dogs found their forever homes! Naomi’s adopter lost their Cane Corso in August and decided they were ready to bring in another special pup. They connected with Naomi immediately and were familiar with her various quirks! We are BEYOND thrilled for this match and are so happy for both of them! Naomi's journey with Last Chance Ranch was filled with love. She pulled on the heartstrings of many of our staff. She was originally fostered with our Kennel Health Manager after arriving. Unfortunately, Naomi could not get along with the resident cat or she would have found her forever home. After a few months of trying, it was not going to be a fit. However, during those months in foster Naomi gained weight and confidence. Back at the ranch, Naomi became a volunteer favorite. She would get to go on offsite adventures, romps at the park, extra long play-time and more! Naomi wasn't a fan of other dogs, so it made finding the right fit for her a little more challenging. However, we knew her day would come and she would find the right people!
