When PIN was fouunded in 1980, 53,840 people lived in Delaware County. In 2010, the county's population was estimated to be over 168,000 an increase of over 213 percent.
Delaware County remains one of the fastest growing counties in Ohio and in the United States.
From 1997 to 2010, PIN experienced a growth rate of 113 percent. During that time, in Food Pantry and Emergency Services alone, direct dollars paid in assistance more than tripled.
From August 2009 through July 2010, the food pantry saw an increase of 40% in the need for food over the same time period in 2008/09. This, in part, is due to the fact that we are now able to provide a three day supply of food on a monthly basis.
