Fork Over Love is a 501(c)(3) organization that purchases hot, chef-made meals from small, independent restaurants and then distributes those meals at locations throughout the community for FREE. Everyone is welcome, from neighbors in need of meals, to those looking to pick up dinner and pay it forward to help support local restaurants. Since organizing in February of 2021, Fork Over Love has distributed more than 22,000 meals in neighborhoods in Luzerne County and provided more than $220,000 in support to area restaurants.

Fork Over Love recently announced a partnership with DoorDash’s Project DASH to extend its reach to those who are unable to attend a drive-thru distribution. Project DASH is DoorDash’s initiative to empower social impact organizations to leverage DoorDash logistics to carry out their mission.

Meals at the sites above will be distributed on a first come first serve basis. Please do not arrive early. Food distribution will not begin until the start time listed. You may drive or walk up to receive food, unless otherwise noted. For more information or to donate to help provide meals for your community and support local restaurants, visit forkoverlove.org or call 570-331-8362.
