Affecting Lives & Helping Families
Our Mission
"The Food Bank of Nevada County
exists to support people in need.
The Food Bank is an ongoing service of acquiring donated, surplus, and purchased food and, prohibited from discrimination, then distributes to help eliminate the hunger associated with hardship or adversity in our Nevada County."
Our Programs
The Food Bank of Nevada County distributes community-donated food and USDA commodities from four locations in Nevada County throughout the month. We also provide healthy school snacks and summer lunches to children of low-income families. Click below for more information.
Our History
The Food Bank of Nevada County began in 1986, as a small group of citizens who banded together in an attempt to alleviate hunger in our local hometown community.
