Mission Statement

We partner with independent restaurants to purchase hot, nutritious chef-made meals that we distribute to anyone struggling to put food on the table—for any reason— because we’re on a mission to holistically nourish communities from the inside out.

Fork Over Love is a nonprofit dedicated to helping local restaurants feed our neighbors in need throughout Luzerne and Lackawanna Counties. This 100% volunteer-run organization uses every dollar of donations to purchase takeout meals from local restaurants. Then, they distribute those meals for free to people in need.

Fork Over Love was founded in December 2020, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. Local restaurants were struggling to stay afloat, while many people found themselves facing food insecurity. Fork Over Love decided to bridge that gap. They have been hosting their free community meals weekly ever since. Their team purchases and distributes between 400-800 meals every week through large public events as well as private non-profit and faith-based collaborations. With your help, they can do so much more.

Volunteer
Volunteering with Fork Over Love means becoming part of a compassionate community dedicated to making a difference. Your time, energy, and talent help impact the lives of individuals and families struggling with food insecurity. Whether you join the FOL team to distribute and deliver food, or you work behind the scenes- all volunteers are welcome and appreciated.

Donate
Fork Over Love believes in feeding our neighbors like family. Just $10 can provide a hot, delicious takeout meal to a person in need, all while supporting local restaurants. They have a page where you can submit a donation, or you can shop FOL merchandise. Proceeds from those sales go directly to the local restaurants supplying meals.
