Our Mission:
Feeding hungry people by collecting and distributing
food and grocery products, advocating for hunger-relief programs and
collaborating with others who address basic human needs.
Vision of the Food Bank:
We believe that no one should go hungry & we are dedicated to building
and sustaining a community that makes grocery products accessible to all
people.
