In celebration of its 65th anniversary, the Corning Incorporated Foundation announced sixty-five $1,000 Employee Vibrant Community Grants. The Corning Community Food Pantry is one of the recipients.

Distribution of food and food-related information to those who need it is the mission of the Corning Community Food Pantry.  The organization served more than 25,000 people in the region during 2017, making it the busiest food pantry in Steuben County, New York. The Food Pantry recently expanded its service area into Western Chemung County, New York.  In addition to providing food, the food pantry strives to meet other basic needs such as clothing, recipes, essential-needs bags for women and girls, diapers, and baby food along with food stamps and referrals to other agencies. This grant will be for general program support.
