Region 9 Housing Corporation - East Side Apartments in Nanticoke helps residents by offering food and nutrition services on-site.

Shirley Torna, Service Coordinator at the Apartments (pictured to the right), hosts the Senior Food Box Program and a mobile Produce distribution each and every month.

"We prioritize serving our residents. Partnering with CEO's Weinberg Food Bank has been vital to our mission, by providing our residents with food every month - since 2017!"

"We are extremely blessed that CEO accepted Eastside Apartments as a partner organization. We are a low-income, multi-family housing complex and our residents are constantly in need of any extra help - including food assistance - to provide for their families."

"Thanks to CEO, we are also fortunate to provide food boxes to non-residents in our community who struggle every month to put food on their tables. Eastside Apartments deeply appreciates the partnership and assistance, helping our residents and the community thrive.

Last month, CEO's Nutrition Education Manager, Kathy Lockman provided information to the residents about healthy eating. She showed everyone how to make Tuna Boats and gave tips on eating more fruits and veggies.
