Mission: As a dedicated non-profit, our mission is to develop, mobilize, and provide community resources to our neighbors, promote independence and preserve dignity in the fight against the many faces of hunger and human need. We have grown from a resource for the hungry to a larger social services organization; offering a variety of additional services to help meet the needs of our community. Our goal is to provide food security, so our community isn't a hungry community.





This organization provides Temporary or Permanent Service? Temporary

Notes:

From the website:

Not only do we serve emergency food and clothing through the Elk Grove Food Bank and the Elk Grove Clothes Closet, but we also run the Elk Grove Community Garden, teaching families and individuals how to grow their own food, hopefully lessening their need for us. We also operate a program called Helping Hand, where we offer counseling and resources to help individuals and families overcome personal challenges to get back on their feet and lead productive, healthy lives.

The Food Bank's mailing address is:

* Food distribution is available Monday-through-Friday from 10:00 a.m. until 11:45 a.m. and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to Noon. The Food Bank is closed on all major holidays.
