Food Boxes for Pregnant and New Moms From Helping Harvest

Helping Harvest's Maternal Health Program gives a box of nutritious food to people who are pregnant or who have recently given birth. It is a two-year pilot program, made possible by the Jewish Healthcare Foundation's Healthy Food Access grant.

The program is designed with expectant and postpartum individuals in mind. Moms and moms-to-be can receive a box of nutritious food at Helping Harvest partner organizations that support a high volume of pregnant and postpartum individuals facing food insecurity. Those partner organizations include WIC offices and Nurse Family Partnership programs.

The boxes are handed out at those partner organizations, not at Helping Harvest itself. The page does not name the individual partner sites, their addresses or the days and times they give out boxes.

The page also does not say how often you can get a box, what the box holds, whether you must already be enrolled in WIC or Nurse Family Partnership, or what it costs, so ask before you go.

For questions, Helping Harvest's general contact number is 610-926-5802, and its office is at 117 Morgan Drive, Reading, PA 19608. The hours listed on the site, Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., are the food bank's own office hours; the page does not give hours for picking up a maternal health box.
