Our Programs
Preparing for Disaster Relief
As the only network capable of ramping up 300% during times of natural disaster, Feeding Florida’s food banks have the capacity and supplies needed to provide aid to people across the state. Through our partnership with the Division of Emergency Management, we can assist the State Emergency Response Team immediately, providing life-changing resources such as pallets of water, ready to eat meals, food boxes, and more.
Meeting People Where They Are
Individuals and families living in rural areas of Florida experience a unique set of hardships, such as lack of food access, at higher rates than people in urban areas. This is why the Feeding Florida network is dedicated to reaching all communities throughout Florida’s 67 counties, not just the more suburban areas.
Our statewide network of food banks works to feed 2.9 million hungry Floridians.
Feeding Florida food banks support more than 2,400 community-based partner agencies, helping food pantries in churches, community organizations, and schools provide food directly to individuals and families in need. Last year, the Feeding Florida network provided over 412 million pounds of food. Of that, over 40% was fresh fruits and vegetables. Feeding Florida is a unified voice regarding hunger and food access by focusing on each community’s needs.
