Pie in the Sky
Pie in the Sky is the largest of MANNA’s signature fund-raising events. The project’s success relies heavily on the commitment of the entire community - staff and volunteers, local schools and businesses, media and our corporate partners to accomplish its goal of selling and distributing over 12,000 Thanksgiving pies throughout the greater Philadelphia area.
Pie in the Sky Overview - Pie in the Sky offers five different types of gourmet pies; all pies are a generous 10" size, individually shrink-wrapped and packaged in gift-quality boxes. Most of the 12,000 pies sold will be baked by volunteers at bake-a-thons hosted in various Delaware Valley locations.
Pies are distributed on the Tuesday and Wednesday prior to Thanksgiving to select team locations and to 42 participating distribution sites throughout the tri-state area.
The $25 donation received for each pie covers our cost of providing a bountiful holiday dinner for a family of four who are living with a life-threatening illness. Meals are lovingly prepared in the MANNA kitchen and delivered by volunteers on Thanksgiving and Christmas morning.
Pre-ordering has ended. If you did not place a pre-order, pies will be available for retail sale at 30th Street Station on 11/22 from 11 AM to 4 PM.
For more information or to change an order, contact 215-496-2662 ext 138 or pie@mannapa.org
