Our Mission

Engaging families. Meeting needs. Giving hope.

The vision of Solanco Neighborhood Ministries is to build meaningful relationships that will provide a support network, promote personal and spiritual growth, and break the cycle of poverty within our Solanco community.

We are a faith-based non-profit ministry located in southern Lancaster County, PA, and we were founded by Solanco Pastor’s Fellowship. Solanco Neighborhood Ministries is 100% funded through generous donations from organizations, churches, local businesses, and individuals, like you!

"Food Bank"

SNM is known to many as the ‘Food Bank’. What was originally created to address food insecurities in the Southern End has grown into a ministry that seeks to engage families, meet needs and give hope. We know from experience that hunger is often a symptom of other struggles. We desire a relationship and want to walk alongside families and connect them to resources that can ensure their sustainability. And we strive to do that with grace and love.

Giving Hope

God has allowed us a particular privilege in taking part in our neighbors' lives when they are likely at their most vulnerable. Throughout this time, we see immense trial and pain, but  also great courage and hope. It is our mission to make the hope of Jesus evident in the work that we do.
