关于我们
Founded in 1972 and renamed in 1983, the Chattanooga Area Food Bank is committed to leading a network of partners in eliminating hunger and promoting better nutrition in our region. The Food Bank acquires and distributes healthy food across a 20-county service region including Southeast Tennessee and Northwest Georgia with help from its network of over 300 partner agencies. Last year alone, the Food Bank distributed over 15.1 million pounds (equal to 12.6 million meals) and served over 25,000 people each week. In addition to food provision, the Food Bank works to engage the public in the fight to end hunger and empower people to take responsibility for their health and their lives.

Our Foxwood Food Center served 3,751 households in September alone! Many of the 220,490 pounds distributed were made up fresh produce, like the beautiful variety of berries we've had this week. It's so important to serve our neighbors with the best products we can. ???????? Foxwood is open Mon-Thurs from 9-4 and Fri from 9-12 at 3209 Wilcox Blvd. Guests can receive food once every 30 days. Walk-ins are welcome!
