'French Toast Connection' held Friday afternoon in Cumberland County, free milk, bread and eggs to those in need

The event is part of a pilot program to reach underserved communities in the Greater Carlisle area.

NEWVILLE, Pa. — A food giveaway is planned for this afternoon in Cumberland County. It's a pilot program for communities with under-served individuals who may not have easy access to food banks. 

The event has a very simple name, it's called 'the French toast connection' because they are giving away bread, milk and eggs, all the ingredients need to make French toast.

This is part of a partnership between Project SHARE, Carlisle Police, and different organizations to try and fill a need in outlying communities. 

The distribution event will take place Friday afternoon, 2/26, from 2 p.m. until 6 p.m. at South Fairview First Church of God in Penn Township, Cumberland County. It will be a no questions asked, drive through event for anyone in need of bread, milk, and/or eggs. 

Currently, this is just a pilot program but if successful it could be implemented in communities surrounding Carlisle in the future.
