This year we are Celebrating Women Who Tell Our Stories and the Food Bank is excited to share the stories of many remarkable women, who have shaped the Food Bank into what it is today and the women who continue to carve out the path of fighting food insecurity in our 34-county service area.
The Food Bank is seeking partners across our 34-county service area to serve as meal distribution sites or paid meal vendors for summer 2023.
Stamp Out Hunger will be held this year on Saturday, May 13th. On this day, the public is asked to simply place bags filled with nonperishable food items next to their mailbox. A Letter Carrier will collect the donation and take it back to their postal branch where Food Bank volunteers/staff will be on-site throughout the day to unload the postal trucks.
Donations matched in June + July to #StopSummerHunger and ensure growing children get the nourishment they need to grow, play, and learn.
Visit foodbankcenc.org/hope to make a MATCHED donation and provide hope with a warm meal for 2x as many people in need this holiday season.
#GivingTuesday is a day of giving, celebrated the Tuesday following Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday.
