Programs and Services
Food Distribution: We receive donated food from companies, grocery stores, food drives and other sources. The food is distributed through our 25 agencies including emergency food pantries, shelters, soup kitchens, and elderly care centers.
Thrift Store: The store provides affordable clothing and household items to those in need.
Kids Cafe®: Currently there is one Kids Cafe site on the Eastern Shore. Please check our Kids Cafe link to see the site locations. Kids Cafe provides low income or at-risk children with a free, nutritious evening meal in a safe, supportive environment. Children also participate in homework help and other after school enrichment programs.
We distribute over 1,000,000 pounds of food every year to more than 19,000 individuals and families through our partnership with 25 community-based agencies. In addition to operating the Community Thrift Store in Tasley, we give over 2,000 articles of clothing to families in need annually.
Volunteers are an important part of our work, donating their time to help distribute food and clothing to those in need. Contact the Foodbank for details on how you can help.
