"I am so grateful for an opportunity to give back to our terrific community that is a continued source of joy and happiness for me. I read about Barley Mow’s “Feed the Frontline” initiative on their social media pages, and I am happy to contribute in a small way to their efforts. I work for international medical nonprofit ECRI and have many friends and family working on the frontlines, so COVID-19’s immense impact is constantly on the top of my mind. I cannot think of individuals who are more deserving of some cheer. Thank you Pennsylvania Downtown Center and Barley Mow for making this a possibility!"

"The Barley Mow had started an initiative called Feed the Frontline in April 2020 right after Covid hit. We accepted any and all donations from customers, community, businesses, etc. We then prepare fresh, warm meals and delivered them to frontline workers all throughout our community. Including all units impacted by Covid in our local hospitals, our urgent care centers, our EMTs, our postal workers, and more. So far, we have donated over 1000 meals!
I safely hand deliver the meals to each unit at the time that works best for them - the workers are overwhelmingly appreciative. This has been the silver lining to the COVID crisis, for sure.
With Alysha’s generous donation, we will be able to feed about a dozen hard working frontline workers next week!"
