Daily News | Carson Wentz still ‘loves the people of Philadelphia,’ impacting the area through charity food truck
Colleen Mivelax of Cherry Hill takes two Carnitas sandwiches to her sons after picking them up from Thy Kingdom Crumb food truck parked outside the South Jersey Food Bank in Pennsauken, N.J.When Carson Wentz gets the chance to call old friend Kyle Horner, a pastor at Connect Church in Cherry Hill, he’ll ask about the community that he was once a part of.
Even as a Washington Commanders quarterback, Wentz has continued to impact the Philly area through the Thy Kingdom Crumb food truck. Despite what the Eagles’ fan base might think of their former franchise QB, Horner said, Wentz still “loves the people of Philadelphia.” “When someone you’re dating breaks up with you, you usually don’t keep paying the rent, right? But there’s still the investment of love, time, energy, resources that’s real. Carson doesn’t just write out a check. They really are invested with what’s going on here.”
He started another food truck in Indianapolis directly through his foundation. As for the Philly location, his brother, Zach Wentz, who’s the vice president of AO1, has helped run it. “We still do that twice a month now because the need is so great,” Horner said. “People come here two and a half hours early in line waiting for us to open because we only have limited boxes.
