Breaking away from music for a moment: New Bethany Ministries in Bethlehem needs your help.

The non-profit — located at 333 W. 4th St. and providing food support, permanent & transitional housing, and representative payee services to local families — has witnessed its food pantry hit its lowest levels in 17 years. The organization has taken to Facebook to call for non-perishable food donations from any residents who can spare a few items.

Hundreds of families count on New Bethany’s pantry for emergency food security. If you can spare a donation, please contact them ASAP at ssoliman@newbethanyministries.org or (610) 691-5602 x206.
