The Lehigh County Coroner’s Office and Forensics Center is partnering with the Allentown Area Ecumenical Food Bank to help provide vital support to local families throughout the holiday season.

As needs continue to rise across the region, the coroner’s office is launching a collection effort for nonperishable food items, inviting community members to participate. Donations may be delivered directly to the office, 4350 Broadway, Allentown.

For those unable to travel, the office will arrange a pickup of donated items.

“Our goal is to help bring comfort and stability to families who may be struggling during the holidays,” Coroner Daniel Buglio said. “Every donation, no matter the size, has a meaningful impact.”

All collected items will be delivered to the Allentown Area Ecumenical Food Bank to support families.
