Here is a similar resource in PDF format: Free Meals in Philadelphia.

Since lists like the above two aren't always kept up to date, it's probably a good idea to contact the place first before you show up there.

2-1-1 SEPA says, "People could also dial 211 to call the resource hotline in their area or text their zip code to 898211 to locate resources."

-==Editor's Note==
-I would suggest printing out a few copies of the PDF to keep with you whenever you walk in Philly. When somebody asks you for money, saying they're homeless or hungry, keep your cash, because 80% of the time it's going to feed a bad habit. Give them a copy of the PDF instead, so if they're really in need, they'll have real, substantial resources to reach out for. Another possibility is to download, print have materials on hand from 2-1-1 SEPA:
