The Women’s Organization to Make Meals For Local Community Fridges
The Junior League of Philadelphia, Inc. (JLP) honors Hunger Action Month with International Find the Good Day on Saturday, September 20, 2025. From 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., at their Headquarters in Ardmore, JLP members will make 140 meals for Mama-Tee Fridges to spread their impact across the Philadelphia area. This unique day aims to strengthen local communities, spread kindness, and create positive change across Philadelphia.
Mama-Tee has fridges across the Philadelphia region, offering access to fresh food to food-insecure neighbors and families. The meals the JLP members will be making consist of a wrap, side salad, and yogurt, to be distributed to community fridges at senior living centers, schools, and pharmacies within the city.
This initiative comes at the perfect time in September, during Hunger Action Month. Organized by Feeding America, this month aims to raise awareness about the prevalence of food insecurity and hunger across communities and provide nutritious food to families facing hunger. Providing healthy food to families and creating a positive impact on the health and wellness of individuals in the Philadelphia area is at the center of the JLP’s mission and philanthropic focus.
“Find the Good Day is such a powerful reminder of what makes the Junior League shine: women working together to develop new volunteer opportunities and make an impact in the city we love so much,” said Pam Phojanakong, Junior League of Philadelphia President. “This day is just one part of our mission to grow the potential of women as change agents and our work to help distribute healthy food to families and individuals in need.”
