In order to sustain the ever-growing need, the Foodbank partners with almost 160 member agencies made up of faith-based organizations, food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters and community centers across our service area for people to turn to in times of need, and together, we have provided over 147 million meals. Hunger relief is truly a collaborative effort and we are making a difference in many lives.
