The pantry is open to everyone, not just members of the LGBTQ+ community. It is serving around 200 families a week.

Lancaster Chooses Love, a nonprofit organization in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, has expanded its food pantry services to better serve the community, particularly those in need. The organization, which started as a response to the 2016 presidential election to promote unity and support, has grown significantly. The expanded food pantry now offers a broader range of food items, including fresh produce, dairy, and meat, and operates on a client-choice model, allowing individuals to select their own food. This initiative aims to address food insecurity and provide dignity and choice to those accessing the pantry. The expansion was made possible through community donations and grants, reflecting strong local support for Lancaster Chooses Love's mission.
