General Info
MissionTo alleviate hunger by providing nutritious food and nutrition education to people in need, educating the public, and promoting public policies that address hunger and its root causes.BackgroundThe Alameda County Community Food Bank has been in business since 1985 with a vision toward a day when we can go out of business. As Alameda County's central clearinghouse for donated food, the Food Bank will distribute 18.2 million pounds of food in 2009 including 7.6 million pounds of farm-fresh produce. Since moving into our permanent facility by the Oakland Airport in 2005, the Food Bank has ramped up distribution of fresh fruits and vegetables by a factor of 633%.
