Welcome to the World's First Food Bank!

Programs: Agency Surplus Distribution


St. Mary's Food Bank Alliance provides perishable food, free of charge, to hundreds of local agencies that feed people. Over two million pounds of food are distributed each month through the Surplus Program. The Food Bank serves as a clearinghouse--perishable food, rescued from grocery stores, is apportioned to over 500 partner agencies.

Agencies include homeless shelters, senior centers, community centers and rehabilitation centers. The Food Bank screens each agency to ensure they are a nonprofit organization, serving the needy public through a congregate meal or "brown bag" program. The agencies then come to the Food Bank and "shop" for the needs of their clients.
