Food Bank of Iowa is an organization dedicated to fighting hunger in the heartland of Iowa. They understand that hunger affects our communities, schools, and neighborhoods. With over 300,000 people in Iowa facing food insecurity, Food Bank of Iowa believes that no one should go hungry.

They work tirelessly to gather and distribute over 1. 5 million pounds of nutritious food each month to their network of 700 partners across 55 counties in Iowa. Food Bank of Iowa goes beyond traditional food pantries by purchasing truckloads of fresh vegetables and lean meat, which are harder to donate.

They distribute this food through their statewide partner network, which includes food pantries, meal sites, shelters, schools, and more. Additionally, they offer three programs to directly serve Iowans in need: the Mobile Pantry Program, the School Pantry Program, and the BackPack Program™. Food Bank of Iowa is committed to ensuring that the food they distribute is safe and wholesome.

Their facilities undergo rigorous food safety inspections, and they have passed every inspection with flying colors. If you want to make a difference and join the fight against hunger, there are various ways to get involved with Food Bank of Iowa. You can volunteer, host a food drive, and more.

Your generosity and support can help provide nutritious meals to those who need it the most
