The Food Bank of El Dorado County is a local, non-profit food assistance agency working to eliminate hunger through food distribution, education and advocacy in cooperation with the community.

Vision Statement:
All individuals of El Dorado County who face hunger will have the opportunity to secure nutritionally adequate food at all times.

History:

The Food Bank of El Dorado County was established in 2000 by founder Mike Sproull and a handful of compassionate community activists. El Dorado County
was one of a few counties in California that did not contain a full service food bank. From a grassroots humble beginning, teamed with the community, the Food Bank is now the largest collaborative charity in El Dorado County. The Food Bank provides food assistance on a daily basis in partnership with over 50 local emergency food response agency sites including abused and abandoned children's homes, battered women's shelters, senior centers, local food pantries, soup kitchens, maternity homes and more.

In 2006 alone our volunteers, financial supporters, product donors, and charity network made it possible for us to distribute over $2.5 million of food for the hungry of El Dorado County.
