The Food Bank of Eastern Michigan & our 700+ Hunger Relief Partners work to end hunger in 22 Michigan counties.

关于我们

The Food Bank of Eastern Michigan was founded in 1981 as a grassroots community organization serving agencies in Genesee County. Since, due to increasing need for our services around the state, the Food Bank has grown to serve a network of more than 700 Hunger Relief Partners, including partner agencies, schools, and other community organizations. Once food arrives at the Food Bank, it is sorted, inspected, and made available to partner agencies such as churches, soup kitchens, and food pantries to distribute to those in need. All Food Bank partner agencies are required to distribute food, without charges or fees, to needy clients. The Food Bank also partners with schools who distribute food through our Backpack Program and School Pantry Program and provides meals during our Summer Feeding Program. The Food Bank serves more than 330,000 families through our partner agencies per year and distributes more than 28 million pounds of food, including 11 million pounds of fresh produce annually. Through our network of partners that includes retail grocery chains and farmers, the Food Bank is able to maximize monetary donations. As little as $1 can provide up to six meals for people in need. To donate, visit www.fbem.org. The Food Bank offers volunteer opportunities in our Hunger Solution Center Monday-Saturday for individuals or groups. In one hour, one volunteer can sort enough food to feed 335 people! For information about volunteering, visit www.fbem.org or contact (810) 396-0210.

    THE RESULTS ARE HERE! Last week, our fine team collaborated with PARKER LANE Art & Design Studios at the Loft to bring you the first ever Brush Off Hunger event. This fundraiser was designed to raise hunger awareness by leading participants in a fun painting exercise. After all was said and done, an incredible $4,848.28 was raised for our cause and we couldn't be prouder! Thank you so much to our staff (especially Katie Wisneski and Steve Lamb), our painters, our host and our sponsors. Without you, events like this could not happen.

    Our friends at E&L Construction Group, Inc. generously decided to volunteer their time today! After sorting through our reclamation line (and processing over 3,100 pounds of food), the crew presented us with a surprise donation of $1,000! Thank you so much to everyone involved. ??????

    Our volunteers are incredibly important! Without them, we wouldn't be able to provide our 22-county?service area with the over 39 million pounds of food we distributed last year. Did you know that, in 1 hour, a single person can sort enough food to feed 355 people? We invite you to be a part of something great by contacting our Volunteer Coordinator, Brooke Summers, at [email protected] today.?#FeedingEM?#WarmWishesWarmMeals
