Our Statement on USDA Elimination of Vital Hunger Data

We are excited to welcome David Garris as the new Chair of the Food Bank Board of Directors!

Cross-sector leadership like David's is needed more than ever. 

Over 607,000 people in our area are facing hunger, including 168,000 kids. That’s 1 in 7 people you pass in the grocery store, at work, or in your neighborhood. But we believe there’s nothing this community can’t overcome when we work together — and Food Lion has long stood hand-in-hand with our hunger relief network to help stem the tide

Every pantry I visit, without fail, someone brings up Food Lion. A story about an associate who went above and beyond. A load of protein that showed up right when they needed it. A relationship that feels real, not transactional. That’s the kind of partnership Food Lion built with us. We are so grateful for the work Food Lion does every single day to end hunger in our community. 

Amy Beros Food Bank President & CEO

Joining David are incoming board members who will help bring this work to new heights as we launch our 2030 strategic plan, Rooted In Community

Together, we are strengthening community partnerships and increasing access to nutritious food — all while ramping up efforts to prevent hunger from happening in the first place. We have full confidence that David's leadership will help ensure continued success for the Food Bank as we advance our vision of a future where no one goes hungry.
