CUP OF HOPE: TopStar Express, a locally owned and operated convenience store chain in Eastern Pennsylvania, is partnering with Feeding Pennsylvania on a “Cup of Hope” campaign. Through this endeavor, a portion of all coffee cup sales is donated to helping five local food banks in Pennsylvania. “The Cup of Hope campaign run by Top Star Express will enable us to stretch the funds raised to purchase healthy, nutritious food for our local neighbors in need,”says Allison Czapp, associate executive director at the Second Harvest Food Bank of the Lehigh Valley. “We are most grateful for Top Star Express and their incredible generosity.”

TopStar Express will be hosting a donation collection on behalf of the Second Harvest Food Bank of the Lehigh Valley that will benefit local school pantries. Requested items: shelf-stable milk pints, individual cereal bowls, macaroni and cheese bowls, fruit cups, granola bars and applesauce cups. Donations of these items and a generous donation from TopStar Express to Feeding Pennsylvania will take place during TopStar Express’s Community Appreciation Event Aug. 18 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 216 Nazareth Pike.
